Low Productivity on days off

    I'm in a full time course but only in 3 days a week so I basically have four days off each week to do whatever I want. When I am busy I am a very hardworking person but when I'm not I'm the opposite.

    My days off are totally unproductive. Any tips on how I can motivate myself because I'm seriously wasting a lot of time.

    Always plan something for the next day, even if its just to go to a museum or go somewhere you have always promised you would go.

    No your not! That's just an excuse to avoid work. 3 days is barely part time.

    Get a job ya hippy

    Full time is less than half the days of the week now?

    I must be doing it wrong by working at least 5 days out of every week :/

    Have you considered a part-time career in cat-burgulary? Would fill those idle days and I believe it's all the rage - I've seen it recommended several times now to people at a loose end.

    Go to the library from 1-5 on your days off and plan and research your assigments...you do have assignments right ??
