Due to everyday commitments, studying was considered nearly impossible just years ago. Luckily, this has changed. Nowadays, Universities and Faculties offer on-line studies that are flexible and adapted to the contemporary fast-paced way of life.

​

Be realistic. Your course-mates that do not have children will have more time than you. Thus, focus on one subject and study only one subject at a time. Do not take on too much work at once. This also means you may have to leave out a subject or two during the busiest months.

​

Know what your priorities are and be aware that you may have to change them at times. Being a mother, partner, Entrepreneur and student is not easy. It is impossible to give 100 per cent in all areas, every day. It may be that you underachieve in your assignments in order to be with your family and/or you may lose a night of sleep in order to finish an assignment.

​

Think positive and believe you can do it. Do not do everything at once but in small steps. That is how it is with all things in life.
