Course Analysis

Talk about a challenging term! One of my main goals was to stay organized and on top of things. Since I noticed that the term before, I started falling behind on my work. I thought maybe it was because last term was not challenging enough? So for this term I decided to take on a lot more projects, thinking it would help me stay more motivated. AND to help me manage all these projects, I went out and bought a daily planner. It seemed like a great idea at the time! but as it turns out – nothing worked out as planned There were just too many thing to keep track of – Too many unplanned events. I tried everything I could think of to somehow stay motivate and on task – but the more I tried the more burnt-out I became. In the end. I realized that I took on too much. I did not complete everything I wanted to I did not manage my time wisely nor did I stay on schedule. The main challenge was to try and balance EVERYTHING. If I could change two things they would be — not take on more than I could handle and NOT underestimate the amount of time it actually takes to finish things. What did go well though is the Ethiopia book I am glad it is finally finished! In a sense… that was kind of like my Thesis project, since it actually got done. If I had to give my project a grade It would probably be a C. Even though I didn’t accomplish exactly what I wanted. I tried my best for the situation I was in.
