Article: Once you've decided what you want your routine's goal and makeup to be, you need to figure out when you can fit your routine's activities in your day. Carve out a chunk of your normal schedule and devote that time to following your routine. If possible, devote more time to each individual task than you think you'll actually need; for example, if exercising typically takes you 40 minutes, plan to devote 1 hour to the task. This will help prevent you from becoming too stressed while following your routine every day. Make time for your routine even on your busy days. Most routine tasks can be accomplished in a small amount of time (e.g., making your bed, taking medication, eating breakfast) and you'll feel more accomplished if you take the time to cross them off your to-do list. For long-term consistency, consider committing a distinct bloc of time (e.g., from 7:30 to 8:00) to your routine each day. However, if your everyday schedule is more fluid, simply commit to devoting some amount of time each day to your routine. For example, if your schedule doesn't allow you to stick to a set time for your routine (e.g., 7:30-8:00), just make sure you're spending 30 minutes each day on your routine tasks. Just because you're following a routine doesn't mean you can't be flexible. Decide what needs to be done daily, weekly, biweekly, monthly, yearly, etc. and schedule this all out. You'll need to follow your routine over a long period of time and mapping it out will make it easier for you to plan out your activities as needed. Purchase a calendar or agenda if you need to, as this will help you to begin managing your time more wisely. A written, scheduled routine will be a lot easier to insert into the day-to-day or weekly things that need to be done. Try to plan out your routine for at least 3 weeks; this is generally how long it takes for your routine to become a normal habit for you.
Question: What is a summary of what this article is about?
Set aside a regular time in which to carry out your routine. Perform your routine at the same time each day to be most consistent. Plan out your routine on a longer time-scale.

Each and every word and symbol in a statistics problem is important, and there can be a lot of information you need to absorb. To get all the information you need, read the problem slowly, and multiple times. If necessary, annotate the problem. Note what each part of the equation represents and what you're solving for. For example, the equation for standard deviation is variance{\displaystyle {\sqrt {variance}}}. Next to that formula, you might want to write the formula for the variance: (X-2/N After you've written out the variance formula, note what each component means. means "sum," the (X-) represents the different between each term in the set and mean, and that N is the total number of points in the data set. When you get to parts of the text that explain a concept or formula, work them out yourself alongside the book, even if the book gives you the answer. Working through the problems as you study can help you really solidify the concepts you're learning before you get to problems you're expected to solve on your own. Even if you have no idea where to start, get your pencil moving and try to get through what you can. That way, if you need to ask for additional help, you can show your professor or tutor what you've already done. Your instructor will likely set you homework that includes a few problems for each statistical concept you studied that week. If you find that 1 particular concept is hard for you, work out 2 or 3 extra problems on that concept. Being good at statistics requires actually doing the problems, so extra practice will always help. If you're not sure which extra problems you should do, ask your instructor. They can give you additional work from your textbook or workbook, or direct you to where you might find extra problems. It's easier to learn statistical concepts what each formula means and what it can help you figure out rather than long, complicated formulas. Focus on learning the concepts behind the formulas you can always look up the formulas later.

One-sentence summary --
Read each problem carefully. Use pencil and paper while you study. Work out extra problems. Focus on concepts, not formulas.
