Journal #14

1. My present system of organization has completely lacked what I envisioned. My decisions of what I will do each day is basically which assignment I feel is most urgent & for which class. This is not working. By thinking that I have enough time to complete a different assignment or long readings in a short period of time has proven that you will fall behind.
2. Using the five self management tools can help overcome doubts, get organized and help you obtain your goals. This is one thing I have learned in Chapter 4. For example of getting organized, a useful tip mentioned was using a monthly calendar for remembering important dates, due assignments, exams and etc. Another helpful tip was having a new action list to help track and maintain goals.
