Well, I want to describe the time when I was very busy and occupied. It was four years ago when I had been studying and working at the same time. I had to accomplish a project for university, and I had a tight deadline. I usually failed to meet my deadlines, but this time I put a lot of effort into doing it properly by the deadline. One thing that hindered me was that I was working outside of the university for a company. Actually, it was an industrial company that assembled electrical panels, and it was demanding work that took a lot of energy from me. When I got home, it was hard to mention; I went to work at seven in the morning and came back in the evening, and I was very tired. By the time I got home, I couldn't do anything. So, I came up with the idea to manage my time, create a schedule, and reduce my working hours. In this way, I could manage to accomplish my university project, which was very important for my thesis and my academic life. I did it anyway, but I learned a lot about time management and the importance of balancing work and study. It was a challenging period, but it ultimately helped me grow and develop skills that I still use today.
