4. Importance
Why is self-management important for student?
Self-management is vital to be a successful student.
It is quite common that students drop-out of university not
because they find the course too difficult to cope with, but
because they become overwhelmed by the workload and are
unable to manage study commitments with work and family
life.
You can avoid this dilemma by being organized and
maintaining a healthy balance in all areas of your life. This
will help you minimize stress and stay motivated in your
studies. Self Management by Muhammad Riaz Hamid

Most people do better with self-management if
they have positive goals to motivate them, like
ways they want their lives and health to
improve.
Change is hard, and we need reasons to do it.
Goal can be about physical fitness, like

your study. That can be anything you want.

3. Tracking Changes:
If you’re trying to make a change in your life,
how will you know when you have done it?
We tend to forget what we have done or how
we have changed over time. How do we
remember the way things used to be?
It helps to keep a record of your activities.
These records (or logs) will help you see what’s
working and what’s need to change.

10. Rules for self-management
1. Live by your values, whatever they are. You
confuse people when you don’t, because they can’t
predict how you’ll behave.
2. Speak up! No one can “hear” what you’re thinking
without you be willing to stand up for it. Mind-
reading is something most people can’t do.
3. Honor your own good word, and keep the
promises you make. If not, people eventually stop
believing most of what you say, and your words
will no longer work for you. Self Management by Muhammad Riaz Hamid

4. When you ask for more responsibility,
expect to be held fully accountable.
5. Don’t expect people to trust you if
you aren’t willing to be trustworthy
for them first and foremost. Trust is
an outcome of fulfilled expectations.

6. Be more productive by creating good habits and
rejecting bad ones. Good habits corral your
energies into a momentum-building rhythm for
you; bad habits sap your energies and drain
you.
7.Have a good work ethic, for it seems to be getting
rare today. Curious, for those “old-fashioned”
values like dependability, timeliness,
professionalism and diligence are prized more
than ever before. Be action-oriented. Seek to
make things work. Be willing to do what it takes

count in life.
