Self-change project

Self- Project:
To Be Organization or Not
For myself change project I choose to become more organized within myself and the things that surround me such as, friends, family, boyfriend, and school. In the beginning of this process it was tough following the chart I organized to help keep my time management on track. I would continually catch myself procrastinating and achieving the things that I enjoyed rather than needed. For example, socializing amongst my friends, family, and boyfriend, instead of ensuing my school homework. However, I knew it was getting out of hand whenever turning in my assignments or almost being late to work suddenly became a major issue for me. As those moments of anxiety lingered through my body, I just wanted to break down crying because I was so over whelmed and frustrated within my self’s lack of motivation.
Luckily, in the beginning of this change I informed all of my family, friends, and boyfriend that I seriously needed to get myself together and become organized, I asked for their support. Once they recognized I wasn’t completing my task, they immediately began to help guide me into the right direction by reminding me and telling me no whenever I wanted to procrastinate and socialize. This support really helped push me into the right direction and I’m glad it happened. Finally, I began to start getting motivated and constantly checking the calendar to ensure I was doing what I needed to do. After a while I started to get the hang of things. I no longer needed to check the calendar, I automatically knew what was important and what could wait while managing when to socialize at the right time. I was, and still am, very proud of myself for declaring I seek organization and accomplishing it.
I never realized before, how unorganized I was or how I even dealt with my procrastination. In the beginning of this semester I would have never thought to actually follow through with a self-project like this and be successful at it. However, I did. There are multiple things now that I do that I never did before to help me be more successful and organized. For example, I now have a binder that contains different sections of each class, separated by homework and notes. It makes it very easy for me to know exactly where everything is at. Also, I write in a planner every day to help my memory so I don’t forget any important deadlines or meetings with my friends. It keeps track of my everyday life style inside and outside of school by the hour. Another is a calendar to help me be more organized with not only the present but with the future events coming up. It provided a great insight on what I can and can’t do on certain days if I was going to be busy.
All of these items developed into a vital resource for my daily success of being organized. Although, it was very tough in the beginning I’m glad I fought through the agony and the stress but most of all I’m glad I took this education class because if it wasn’t for this class, I probably would have never even tried. However, I’m more grateful for the people who I surrounded myself with because they impacted this progress by pushing and believing in me to succeed further in life.
