Do you have the power to slow down time? Even with my few hobbies of drawing, reading manga, watching anime, and playing games, I can't divide my time well enough to equally enjoy them all. I did a bunch of things in college and ended up wearing myself out to the point I had to drop one of them. How do you do it..??

In your case, I suppose find even more things to do, or spend more time on some of your current hobbies and responsibilities? Maybe meet up with friends too? I used to do that a lot...

1. Phone use is basically nonexistent

2. No social media

3. Cut corners on time. No 20 minutes showers, super long meals, or procrastination. Stick to very brief showers, use a decent amount of time to eat, and force myself to not beat the bush.

4. Be steps ahead. Ever since Kindergarten, I had a habit of constantly absorbing any information that might help me. It keeps you on pace with everything (and everyone) else.

5. Don't make a schedule. for people with asperger's it can help, but for me I always despised schedules and the concept of 'structuring' my day. I like to be very loose so I don't treat anything like 'missed' time. 

6. Sleep on time. I sleep at 10-11pm usually and wake up at 6. That's seven to eight hours of sleep, sometimes more if I have nothing to do and want to sleep earlier.

7. Simple, not complicated. If I'm doing, say, some Calc 4 work and I find problem 23a confusing, I'm not spending thirty minutes on it. I'm skipping it and doing everything else and then going back to it. if I understand, then I do it. Otherwise, I save it for later and ask for help the next day.

8. Keep everything in its own place. School is school, work is work, and home is home. I was never the one who wasted time with middle school/high school drama, nor do I give a shit about any issues Becky may have at any job I'll ever have. Once you keep a wall between everything, things become more comfortable and relaxing. Leaving work/school outside of my life has made a large difference.

 

That's a rather simple list. Hope it helps you.

Those are some things I need to fix, haha. I usually get distracted by phone games, mostly Fire Emblem Heroes, I tend to sleep late, and I get caught up in something for a little while if I'm sure what to do with the task. It'd probably help if I start with sleeping earlier, haha...
