Reading Time: 2 minutes

Planning is a wonderful tool you should use to manage your time perfectly. Plan your day; it involves you writing out everything you are going to do in a day and when you are going to do them.

As a child, you have school for five days, assignments from school, church on weekdays and weekends, visitations and other stuff.

Plan around these activities. Give specific amount of hours or minutes to them.

Here is an example:

6 am – Personal prayers/bible reading/ daily devotional.

6:30 am – house chores.

7-7:30 am- Grooming/breakfast

7:30am – School

This is just to give you an idea of how to plan your day.

Learn to plan well. After school you could give some time to studying the day’s work (and more), and doing assignments, if any.

“Study and be eager and do your utmost to present yourself to God approved (tested by trial), a workman who has no cause to be ashamed, correctly analyzing and accurately dividing [rightly handling and skillfully teaching] the Word of Truth.” 2 Timothy 2:15 (AMP)

The major thing about using your time well is to do the important, necessary and urgent things first before the rest. School is important/necessary and urgent. Assignments also. The church is the same. Personal bible study, praying and devotionals are important, necessary, and urgent too.

Don’t do what you need to do later now. Plan well and do them now, so that you won’t fail.

“I went by the field of the lazy man, and by the vineyard of the man void of understanding; And, behold, it was all grown over with thorns, and nettles were covering its face, and its stone wall was broken down. Then I beheld and considered it well; I looked and received instruction. Yet a little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to sleep– So shall your poverty come as a robber, and your want as an armed man.” Proverbs 24:30-34 (AMP)

May you receive help to plan your time well. Amen

Prayer:
Lord, teach me how to make good use of my time daily. In Jesus’ name, amen.

Action plan:
Draw a rough plan of how your day looks like. Perfect it to reflect the important things you need to do daily. Put the important things first.
