1.

A balanced schedule is one in which a person organizes their activities; for example, each

day’s activities are allocated a particular amount of time. A well-balanced schedule

reduces time wastage and increases an individual’s productivity. Time management is the

organization of tasks and activities to increase the productivity of an individual’s efforts.

2. In my comparison, I’ll refer to the woman on the left as “Woman I” and the woman on

the right as “Woman II.” Both women use time management tools, as we can see that

they have a set alarm to help them wake up in time. “Woman I” lacks discipline as she

procrastinates waking up, while “Woman II” wakes up immediately the alarm rings.

“Woman I” is disorganized, which makes her multitask after waking up in an attempt to

recover the lost time she slept after her alarm rang. However, in return, she has low

productivity compared to “Woman II,” who has a well-planned schedule. In the video,

Woman I spends much time playing video games while Woman II uses her time

constructively by reading and going about her planned time; she has a set time for

playing. Woman II has her priorities set right. After 7 pm, “Woman I” goes out to party,

spends much time there, and returns while she is drunk and drained. She goes to sleep

extremely tired and doesn’t even sleep on her bed. With the exhaustion and wrong

sleeping posture, she denies herself proper and enough sleep. “Woman II” has her life

well scheduled and leads a healthy lifestyle by going to bed in time and having enough

sleep. She also does not spend much time on her phone and tv like “Woman I”, which is

an unhealthy habit.

3. I am good at managing my time since I follow a well-structured pattern for my daily

tasks. Every day, I spend 3 hours of my time watching television and movies. I’ve been

considering joining a gym for a time now, and by lowering the number of days I watch
TV to three per week, I’ll be able to devote the other four days to the gym. That way, I’ll

be able to attain much balance in terms of time management and stay in shape.
