“What is now proved
  Was once only imagined.”


                        William Blake




In this day and should we say any age it isn't uncommon to be employed at the same time attending school.  You could be someone who had to take the labor route while skipping school and now find yourself attending school.  You could be the college grad who is considering going back into school to further your education and career.  No matter what the reasoning is, it's never too late to get back into school and finish what you want to accomplish.  Even if you currently work.  Only struggle among any others is how to balance both work and school. 

It will be challenging at times with the demands that work carries and with adding more on with school.  However the reward at the end is so worth it and it all benefits you and your career.  With some hard work, determination, support, and a little helpful guide from us we're sure to help map out some pointers to help keep you sane!!

                              Balancing Work & School 

Scheduling: When it comes to dealing with both work & school we recommend a consistent schedule.  If never using a calendar, date book, or phone app now is the time to do so.  With work schedules, class schedules, assignments, projects, meetings, etc. you will need to jot down everything to the T.  This way your always prepared when something is due. 

Be Organized: Without organization you have nothing.  Keep on top of work and school assignments.  Keep conscious of when deadlines are to come giving yourself ample time to complete assignments. 

Handling STRESS:  One thing balancing work and school will bring is plenty STRESS.  When getting breaks take the time to yourself.  Either to relax or most importantly catch up on some much needed sleep.

Make sure to maintain a healthy lifestyle.  You will need to be in good health and stamina to keep up with such a hectic at times schedule.  Eat healthy and excercise as needed to keep your body feeling good and even your mental!!   

All work and no play is never good.  Though work and school comes first and foremost do take the time out when necessary to still enjoy yourself and have a good time.  Alittle fun never hurt anyone!!


Communicate: With the extreme amount of work on your hands be sure to communicate to your loved ones, work, and school just how much pressure your under.  This way you can get the support you will need as you go along. 

EYE ON THE PRIZE: The most important of all tips we advice is to keep your eye on the prize!! Know and instill in your mind that all this hard work, sleepless nights, stressful days will be all worth it in the long run once your degree is awarded to you.
