Ideas

Steps to achieve this goal
- Establish a plan

Conclusion
With this "system" in play, I was able to get more done in a decent amount of time than without it. Before doing any of this plan, I would get little to no homework done, but after I would start around 3:30 and finish around 6. I spent an average of 2.05 hours on homework a night after putting this plan into play. This has helped me to do more of my work and stay mostly caught up with all my work in school.
