SPACED REPETITION…

Skritter: I’m too busy Time Management: Jar of Time Rocks: things that take up BIG chunks of time Pebbles: things that up MEDIUM chunks of time Sand: things that take LITTLE chunks of time (“small grains of time”) Water: super TINY tasks

The rocks in my life represent anything that has to do with school (especially including Skritter). School is my #1 priority at this time in life for me. The sand is stuff like putting classroom materials on my desk before a class, or brushing my teeth. My pebbles are to do well in sports. The water is all the moments I spend in my life. Rocks: overcoming procrastination Pebbles: Maintaining good relationships with my family and friends. Sand: Sleep and free-time Rocks: Homework and other academic activities TLDR: You are not busy to use Skritter every day
