1) The requirements of this course are very minimal but what I do to keep up is actually designate a time and day to every one of my assignments in the beginning of the week so I can be mentally prepared for everything
2) I feel like giving up all the time, like every day. I always pull through by thinking about the end goal and how this is helping me towards my future. I feel like I’ve developed an attitude but not a tenacious one. The experience of taking 18 credits has made me come to this.
3) 3 tips I would give:
a. Don’t wait until Friday morning to rush for your assignments.
b. Choose something you enjoy doing and stick with it for this course.
c. To develop a tenacious mindset you will need to be diligent and take all of your time into consideration and make sure you’re happy most importantly.
Great post Brynn! I think you did a great job of reviewing what this first semester has been like. I agree that while the requirements for this course are minimal it is important to set a time and day to get the assignments done. I also think it is important to not rush the assignments and to approach the course with a tenacious attitude.
ReplyDeleteHi Brynn,
ReplyDeleteI definitely agree with your advice on designating a time and day to complete the assignments for this course. At the beginning, I found myself waiting until Friday morning to complete my assignments because I knew they would be easier. However, this resulted in not putting out my best work and not getting the most from this course that I could. I also agree with your second paragraph about thinking about the end goal and using that incentive to help you complete your goal. I have yet to take 18 credits in a semester, but I think its awesome that you were able to do it and push through!
Hi Brynn,
ReplyDeleteI am impressed by you taking 18 credits this semester! That surely is an exhausting amount, and I think I'd have a hard time developing a tenacious attitude for one specific class as well. Meanwhile, here I am following your advice of not waiting until morning to rush your assignments. I also mentioned picking a topic you enjoy as a tip, because if I had not I can't even imagine how boring that'd be!
