other valuable responsibilities, and it prepares me to become an effective adult. I also like to take some responsibility for my personal expenses, and working allows for me to feel at peace with myself. It may be overwhelming for some students to find time to do everything, and the day sometimes does not feel like enough; yet, I would advise all those that are willing to take a chance of higher education, to challenge themselves and strive to come out of their comfort…
excitement in the building. The date was July 10, 1995, my first time stepping into a live casino. This was the beginning of my hospitality/gaming career. At the age of 21, I had no clue what my skills were or if I had a talent. Thinking to myself, " I will find multiple talents in this industry". My first night was extremely busy! Pushing my way through the crowds, exchanging money, paying jackpots and earning my own money for the first time, was exciting. Each person I met was friendly.…
movies I would have to go. The next day we went to the mall and I ran into my crush so we all decided to hang around. I thought this was the perfect time to get to know her before dating, but disappointingly didn’t get to obtain her number. All those days wasted when I could’ve been studying for this hard ass test, I really need to learn some time management skills. This definitely won’t help me in college or university when there is a tougher load of work. But for now, well here I am stuck in…
A big issue of mine is distraction. It is hard for me to really focus on one task, like studying. My mind gets of track and sometimes it can be hard for me to get anything done. Another improvement I need to make is how much time I leave for studying and homework. Sometimes I procrastinate and before I know it I am only left with only a half hour to get all of my homework done for the next day. In the beginning of the semester, I viewed myself as overwhelmed, nervous and dependent…
procrastinator, and I’m an overthinker. I wish I was more physically stronger, so I can defend myself in case I ever get attacked out of nowhere one day. I tend to be very quiet when talking to people, and it’s either they can’t hear me most of the time, or I have a hard time speaking to them. I’m trying to overcome it, but it’s a very difficult process for me. I was huge procrastinator ever since I started Kindergarten. My motto was “Have fun and do work later.” I’m slowly overcoming…
age is to use the Internet along with essential time management. In the same way, the educational field is a vital part, and every single student must be taught how to use the Internet with keeping the track of time. Otherwise, there is always a risk of finding those innocent young adults being victimized by the Internet addiction. Hence, every school should consider offering programs or workshops focused on teaching students proper management time while using the Internet. This solution is one…
Time management is something that most people struggle with, to varying degrees. This problem runs rampant particularly among college students in the form of procrastination. Procrastination is the art of putting something off until the very last possible time that one still has the ability to achieve it. Procrastination often has very negative effects and can cause underachievement, stress, and lack of sleep. However, some people would argue that they work best under the pressure of a deadline,…
For my Self-Change Project I decided to work on changing my very bad habit of procrastinating, by practicing better time management skills. Procrastinating is something that I have done as far back as I can remember. I always waited until the last minute in everything I did from school projects, helping others, to even leaving out of the house. Everything I did was at the very last minute, to include starting school and signing up for classes. If I would have waited another semester to start…
want to achieve those plans, but just do not have a way to do it. I had plans of a fashion magazine based in my hometown of Charlotte and even had people on board to support with layout, graphics and photography; nonetheless, I lacked the money and time to begin. I also have an idea of a fashion boutique that designs one of a kind wedding dresses that I would personally sketch from her deepest dreams, however those plans are still alive but on hold until I have a financial backing for them. You…
