Transcript:

Time management is an essential skill that helps you keep your work under control, at the same time that it helps you keep stress to a minimum. We would all love to have an extra couple of hours in every day. Seeing as that is impossible, we need to work smarter on things that have the highest priority, and then creating a schedule that reflects our work and personal priorities. Poor time management is often a symptom of over confidence. Time management is important for your personal life and career success and MBA aspirants or those pursuing MBA must keep this mantra in life. You have to balance everything in your college life like morning jogs, preparing for classes, studying, organization activities, spending time with friends and most importantly sleeping.
