The two can really not be mixed. Otherwise the body will interpret leisure time mixed with work as work and tasks mixed with leisure will still be work that leaves one exhausted and stressed and in extreme cases lowers down the body functions that makes one prone to illnesses. Out of that take away all the time that you will need for sleep and rests, meals, personal things, errands and all those things that you can not do without. And with that I do not mean the TV, the telephone and the chitchat - yet. - If you are like most students, there is a good chance that you are left with about 85 hours.

They know that there are no unfinished businesses, no job hanging, nothing is half done and tasks that are half-right. For some it will be touch and go for a while resulting in succeeding or quitting. Time management at work is making time in pursuing the goal. It is leaving excuses behind.

When it is already almost your time to make the presentation that you painfully finished yesterday only to find out today that some materials are missing.
