 Comments on Randy Pausch Time Management


    Dr. Randy Pausch an American professor of Computer Science, was born 10/23/60 in Baltimore,MD as Randolph Frederick Pausch. Dr. Pausch was  assistant and associate professor in the Dept of Computer Science at the University of Virginia's School of Engineering and Applied Science from 1988 until 1997. In 1997, Dr. Pausch became Associate professor of  Computer Science, Human-Computer Interaction and Design, at Carnegie Mellon University. Dr. Pausch died 07/25/08 from pancreatic cancer in Chesapeake,VA.
 Dr. Pausch Time Management was very rewarding. I never viewed my time being manage the way he pointed it out. Setting goals, stop wasting time which I know I have not used wisely, and how to deal with stress. Majority of the time we do not know that we are experiencing stress until it is almost fatal to us. If we just start mapping out our goals, we would have a less stressful life. Furthermore;we need to start setting goals and setting our priorities in order as stated and we should see improvements in our every day life for success.
  Another point that Dr.Pausch pointed out was experience comes with time and if one mess up early they will do better later in life. Plan to fail-nothing will  hurt a failure but a try!  At first if one does not succeed , keep trying and if one does succeed, continue to be successful!
   I will take these points to heart for time management and use them to have a successful semester at USA.
