3 Reasons Teenagers Fail to Manage Time.
Teenagers are vulnerable! Teenage is considered to be the most reckless phase of a man’s life, however it’s the same phase that can help a man grow into what he aims to be. Unfortunately, this is not possible without effective time management. Several reasons contribute to the mismanagement of time for teens.
- Long & Late Sleep – Teens, these days, are more likely to sleep for longer hours than ever before. They have become accustomed to stay awake in their beds till 3 or 4 a.m. and sleep in the early morning till late afternoon wasting straight 12-16 hours. While others are habitual to sleep for 10-12 hours.
- Gadget Distractions – Addiction to devices steals a considerable part of our valuable time, particularly teenagers’ time. If we take into account those 2-3 minutes we spend on devices after 10 minute interval, we will realize how many hours we waste each day.
- Procrastinating – Last but not the least, procrastination has always been one of the biggest time-killers. Sadly, it is most common in teens. They tend to push back assignments to a later date/time running themselves into unavoidable problems.
Our world needs more responsible teens and thus they need to realize their weaknesses and fix them.
