Huge Procrastinator Report

Procrastination had won the battle against every fiber of my being. Truthfully, I don't even recall the moment when I began to lose track of my deadlines and determination to stay consistent with my academics. I however, vividly remember the cost I had to pay. The most time consuming and crucial project of my junior year had been my science fair project for my Biochemistry class that had required my complete attention- I was under its complete control, constantly testing and surveying students, analyzing their responses and interpreting every spec of data. The issue being that my remaining six classes seeked equal time in the spotlight. This very project had lead me to dangerously deem it as my priority over

Throughout high school, I have struggled with these questions. After years of missing deadlines and submitting subpar work, I began to create an environment adverse to procrastination. I realized that by taking on harder work and making more commitments

I think that I could improve my time management skills by making sure I limit my distractions. Facebook is a big thing I like to check periodically so if I block out a little bit of time throughout the day to have that moment to check facebook or phone a friend or family; my thought is that hopefully by the time I am ready to do homework, I will have gotten that all out of my system which will allow me to keep on task to finish the assignment or project. Another thing that helps me that I should do more often is find a place with the environment that will help me focus on my tasks and not be distracted. I find that a lot of times when I work on my school work at home I want to do other things such as clean house. When my house is a mess I find myself stepping away from the computer to clean it. So when I have to do a assignment it would be best if I can leave the house to finish up my assignment. I think it would also benefit me to plug in some time for myself to have fun. This is something that I don't do often and have a hard time finding the time to do, but I feel that if I did that it would help me to stay focused on tasks when that time comes and to not be so

Primarily, before I was able to use my time management skill to benefit my academic success as a student at Miami this term, I had to follow certain procedures. The first thing I did in the beginning of this semester was that I created a, To Do, list to help me identify a few items and the reasons for doing them. I create these lists every Sunday to guide me through my weeks of school. The first thing in the list is to make sure I go to sleep on time, so I can wake up on time and arrive on time in class every day. Another method I follow is the daily and weekly planner which helps me writing down my appointments, classes’ times, and meetings’ times on a

So staying to true form after facing the two big issues causing my procrastination I immediately began procrastinating my solving procrastination. However after two days I realized that this really was a problem that needed solving right here and now. So I began to brainstorm how I could solve my problem. The next week of the class couldn’t have come at a better time since we focused mainly on procrastination. After reviewing my notes from that class and looking to the textbook for advice, I found the solutions to my first problem to-do lists, calendars, timers, and specific study and work times with

One of the biggest stressors college students face is time management. As a non-traditional student, I would like to say that I have all my "ducks in a row," but unfortunately I do not. College students, especially grad students, are tasked with juggling a job, family, and school at the same time. This can definitely prove to be a major issue when trying to stay on top of your game. However, with proper time management skills, one can easily overcome this issue especially when they are like me and tend to

The first reason that I am being procrastinate is because I sometimes cannot focus on my work, I always think that I still have 3 days or 2 days to work on it, so just go have some fun right now, is not a big deal. However, it end up with I don’t have time to do research because I always leave it till last day, which means I deserve a low grades because I didn’t work hard. The reason why am I being so procrastinate is because of my lack ability of self-control, I am so easy to get distract from other things such as video games, my friends, Facebook and so on. There is an example from my first year assignment from MGMT 1000, the assignment requires us to write 1500 words essay,

Having gone through STP, I learned that I still need help combating procrastination. My time management throughout the Summer Transitional Program was the best that it has ever been in my entire schooling career. However, I know that my time management still needs to improve in order for me to easily complete each assignment. One thing that has been a tremendous help was learning how to implement a to-do list and writing assignments down. Having a schedule makes it easier to remember what I have to do.

I have made sure, and will continue to make sure that I stay organized at all times. This has enabled me to keep on top of my work and I hope it will continue to help me in the future. Also I have been able to budget my time in a very efficient way thus far. I have successfully divided time slots that have allowed me to have enough time to complete each assignment with ease. Unfortunately I have also seen what my weaknesses will be in this first week. I noticed that I could be distracted very easily. It only takes one mention of food, a movie, or to simply go visit a friend from distracting me from studying. Procrastinating was always a problem I had in high school and I hoped I would be able to break that habit in college. I know that I can manage my time well and I do so when I finally decide to start working. It is just that initial step that always seems to be the hardest. I will use the resources that SLU offers such as the student success center and take the tips I learn in this University 101 class in order to get around my roadblocks while also improving what I am already good

One way I could overcome procrastination is to have a planner that is “…an electronic calendar on your phone… (pg., 26). This will help because I am always on my phone and It will notify me when I should be doing my homework, instead of me writing on a paper planner, and forget where I put it and have to spend my time looking for it this will save me time and I will be able to actually catch up with all my work because I usually don’t like using a planner but an electronic one could fix that

Technology is a honestly the majority of the distractions that cause myself to procrastinate while studying and finish assignments ahead of time. For example my phone just in general allows me to do so much now like it's almost not even funny how many different distractions are accessible from a phone. I could be online shopping, playing video games, communicating with friends, or even just browsing social media. I can literally just use my phone until there nothing left to look at and that alone can consume a great chunk of time throughout a single day. To stop myself from all these distractions I just give my phone away to my advisor, turn it off for the duration of my studies, or multi task until I eventually get my work done. Not all of these option are the best to resort to but it's what I do on a daily basis to get through

I devised a plan to give myself some leverage to overcome these obstacles. I became a master of my own time. First, I began using a scheduler to keep up with how I spent my time during the day. I created check lists. Most of all I worked on stop being a procrastinator. f.

I am very organized in managing my time effective. Time management has been a goal for me since the age of 9. I was thought to set goals and work to over achieve them at all times. It all started when my mom would inform me of my daily duties in the morning and would always check to ensure they are completed before I go to bed. I then developed the skills of how to manage other task including helping my younger sister and cousin with their

Time management is the key thing of successful. I am not good in managing time because I don’t organize my study time carefully and not use my time wisely during work. I always leave everything until the last minute, and sometimes I do unimportant things like playing games, surfing internet and watching movie, but actually I know there a lot of work to finish off. I get to the bottom of this crisis and try to systematize my study and set up my work. I make a schedule of revision, and I put a date where I need to complete the schoolwork. I also make a small target, for example, I want to understand the concept of heat transfer by the end of this week, and I have to achieve it no matter what. I

During my course of study, I plan on using all of these strategies in order to address work life and other responsibilities. Firstly, I will set manageable goals every day by making a “to do” list that takes care of important tasks and eliminates unessential ones. I keep my lists and deadlines written down both in an agenda and on a large white board on my wall, which keeps me organized and on-top of my tasks. Secondly, I will be efficient with my time. I have never been much of a procrastinator when it comes to work and school because I want all of my projects and tasks to be organized and done well. When I have large projects or assignments, I will divide them into smaller tasks and complete each one before moving on to the next. This strategy has always worked for me and it helps me spend time productively. This strategy also helps me prioritize activities that enhance my career and personal life while minimizing the time I spend on activities that don’t.
