What’s the most important skill for success in college? In my opinion, it’s self management. That means having a system that you use to capture, review, and respond to important information on a daily basis. In other words, take a cue from Santa Claus and make a list and check it twice (or more often).
Being accountable, reading and responding to email, using a calendar, and making lists of tasks and reminders are powerful habits for success.
Here are some recommended apps and tools to get you started:


Thanks, Elisa! I have also started to use the Bear app to capture writing ideas, etc. That way they don’t get lost in the fray 😉
Thanks, Brooke! The post is just a draft so I’ll be adding a lot more content soon (had to get something started to meet a deadline). I’ll be sure to include the Bear app. Hope all is well with you!
Yes, you as well!
