Chronicle Jan’ 19

In the academic calendar, January stands for fast approaching exams. Anxiety of the students‟ is palpable. Each

passing day adds up to their stress. The key to de-stress lies in proper time management. Time management is a

tool that enables students to use their time effectively and productively. We all are awarded 24 hours every day

and if we use them carefully each and every target is attainable.

So my dear students, make a time table and follow it carefully, take healthy diet and don‟t forget to unwind

yourself by taking regular breaks and doing something that you enjoy. I am sure you all will come out with flying

colours. All The Best and remember “Success is the sum of small efforts repeated day in & day out.”
