5 Knowledge Importance Tips for Managing Studies with Work:
1. Plan Effectively
Set a timetable for your study every day. You will have an idea about your work-load for the week at the office, so set aside a few hours after work which you can fully dedicate for studies. Set achievable targets, depending on your time available for studies. Setting unrealistic targets will only end up demotivating you if you fail. Keep a separate area for you to concentrate on your studies. Avoid distractions like the TV, movies, etc., as they will not help you in achieving your goals in the long run.
2. Proper Rest
Give sleep and proper rest a priority. Working at the office all day long and then preparing for competitive examinations can be exhausting. Hence, if you are well rested, you will be able to perform well at both work and your studies. So set a fixed time for going to bed and waking up. Do not try to indulge in outings with friends, thinking you will relax and have a good time. What’s important right now, is achieving your goal. And that can only be done if you are both mentally and physically healthy.
3. Proper Diet
We are defined by what we eat. Having a wholesome healthy diet is as important as having proper rest. This is again about being mentally and physically fit. If you eat healthy and easily digestible foods then you can get proper rest at night, and thus have a productive following day. But if you load up on junk food, it will take your body a long time to digest and process that. This, in turn, will keep you up late at night, feeling uneasy. This will again make you feel lethargic the next day. So pay good attention to what you feed your body and your mind.
4. Update Your Employer
If you are fortunate enough to have an understanding and compassionate supervisor then do let him know your simultaneous study plans. This way he can be aware of your exam schedule as well, and know which days to expect you to miss the office if needed. Knowledge importance helps you to solve the problem.
5. Use Your Technology Wisely
Make soft copies of all your study materials, using scanning apps or by clicking pictures, and keep them on your mobile phone. This way your study materials will be with you at all times and help you prepare whenever you can sneak out some time for it. Make short notes on topics while you are studying them. Short notes are super handy and can help you with revision after a long workday. Importance of knowledge gives you power.
