Scheduling involves identifying a number of elements. First, identify the tasks that you need to do. Second, decide when you’re going to do each task. Assign a specific time frame (e.g., “from 8:30 a.m. to 9:30 a.m.”) instead of using vague terms (e.g., “sometime in the morning”). Third, identify the tools and resources you’ll need for the task so that you can prepare them beforehand. Fourth, name the physical location where you’ll carry out each task.
