Self-management involves using personal and social skills strategically to achieve one's own goals. Key components of self-management include self-regulation, time-management, self-control, and being a good listener. Developing self-management skills like initiative, organization, and accountability can help students prepare for life after university by easing challenges. Initiative means taking action without prompting, organization is planning time and tasks, and accountability is taking responsibility for results.

4. The three key self management skills include:
 Initiative
 Organisation
 Accountability
Initiative
Initiative is being able to work without always being told what to
do. You can show initiative by thinking for yourself and taking
action when needed. It means using your head, and having the
drive to achieve. Initiative requires self belief, because you need
resilience and motivation to go out of your way to solve problems
or do things without being reminded or asked.

5. Organisation
If you are organised in life and work it means you can plan
your time and the things you have to do. You know what is
most important, what should be done first and what will take
the longest. It’s also about being prepared and having the
things you need when you need them. So if you know you
need certain tools or information to complete a task, you make
sure you have them before you begin.
Accountability
Accountability and responsibility are similar but they don’t
mean the same thing. A manager at work could give you
responsibility for a task but you could still look for someone
else to blame if it all goes wrong, or you could decide not to
put the effort in because you don’t really care about the
results.
