Hey everybody,
Hope everyones week went well. For my goals in particular, it was a strong week. I only had one quiz this week, where I was happy with my grade. Because the lack of exams, I studied a lot of the information for every one of my classes. This way I was able to catch up and build a stronger foundation of what I was learning about for each class, so come test time, I am good to go. Lets hope it works out though, because this week, I got a BIG week of exams. An exam in each of my two most demanding subjects and a paper due in another. I think with my study habits will benefit me for this upcoming week.
The other behavioral goal to help me accomplish my goal of a 4.0 is my sleeping habits. This week was a good one for me in this area. I didnt take any mid afternoon catnaps, which have helped me go to bed earlier (midnight) after studying. This has helped me get up earlier and be more productive. I already feel the changes happening, hopefully it will translate in my grades!
Bob,
ReplyDeleteGreat goals! I definitely wish you the best of luck with all your exams and can't wait to hear how well you did.
Getting the right amount of sleep really plays a big part in you reaching that 4.0gpa. Your brain performs so much better when well rested. You can certainly make it happen and it WILL get easier. Creating a new sleep pattern is tough at first, but your body will become accustom to it in no time.
Keep up the great work!

ReplyDeleteI really liked the fact that you studied for your other classes when you didn’t have any immediate tests/quizzes in them. This is something that I always tell myself I should do, but usually opt out in order to relax or socialize when the opportunity presents itself. This will definitely give you a head start when it comes to studying for your next assessment.
I’m also glad to see you are slowly reconstructing your sleeping patterns. In the past, I have been guilty of napping all afternoon and then often found myself awake at ungodly hours of the night. My friends used to joke that I was nocturnal. I can attest that cutting out naps is hands down the best way to go. I also tried to refrain from caffeine after dinner and tried to hit the gym to relieve stress/anxiety before bed. Hopefully you’ll be able to incorporate some of these methods or find some of your own to help you reach your goals! :)
