There are many types of time management, and not all of them will work for everyone. In order to find what works for you, we recommend 1st: reading about and understanding different types, 2nd: picking multiple that you know might work for you based on past experiences, and 3rd: trying each of those several times in order to narrow it down to 1-3 time management mechanisms.
Once you figure out which techniques work best for you, try to build them into your daily/weekly schedule! For example, if you choose time blocks and self-timer, decide that each day after school or work, you will do homework for 30 minutes and take a 5-minute break, then do homework again for 30 minutes, and during this time you are not allowed to be on your devices or do anything other than the tasks assigned. You would do this every day, and once it becomes a habit (habits typically take 30-90 days to fully develop), it will be significantly easier to do without getting tired or bored or distracted.
Time management also consists of being more efficient. In order to do this, you just need to know yourself better. One thing to know that may be helpful is your learning style, which you can figure out by taking this quick quiz, this one, or this one. Once you have learned how you learn best, this can help you prioritize certain methods of note-taking, doing homework, and studying. Some examples would be flashcards vs. diagrams vs. Cornell notes.
Another way to be more efficient, especially for those of us still in school, is learning how to take tests instead of just the content. Of course, you need to know some parts of the content in order to do well, but a huge part of doing well on tests is knowing how to answer the questions correctly (which may seem like duh, but isn't always so obvious). This is also why the system is so messed up, but that discussion is for another day. Here's where to find some tips on how to do well on tests:
