Sitting down to plan your work in detail may seem like a waste of time; however, taking the time to organize makes your studying more effective:

• you become more productive
  
• the quality of your work improves
  
• because you know what you have done and still have to do, you do not panic about "falling behind," nor do you leave everything until the last minute
  
• you build your confidence as a thinker and enjoy the work more
  
• you enjoy your leisure time more.
