Tenacity and Paying it Forward
1.
For this course I have been reading what I have to do for the
week every Sunday. Then I plan accordingly with my schedule. If I have a busy schedule
then I try to do my assignment earlier, if I do not have a busy schedule I do
the assignment a day before or the day it is due.

2. There have been moments when I felt like not doing an assignment,
but what gets me through it is that I am doing this to get a good grade in the
course will be one step closer to graduating, which is one step closer to
optometry school, which is one step closer to becoming an optometrist, and so
forth. I view it as a snowball I am trying to get bigger. I defiantly have
developed a tenacious attitude because I want to live a good life and in order
to do so I have to be tenacious with my studies.

1) When beaten down because of a bad grade, do not fall prey to
blaming others or the teacher. Take a look a back and look on how you studied.
2) Read to help stimulate your mind. Don’t look for quick and easy entertainment.
3) Do not let others distract you from your goals.
Hey Brandon,
ReplyDeleteThis is great advise. I think it is great that you read what the assignments are ahead of time. I personally honestly do everything the day of, but you are doing what works for you. I also like that you talked about not blaming the teacher is you are getting a bad grade. That happens way to often and it is not usually the teachers fault.
Shalom Brandon, I feel the same way. Sometimes it is hard to work up the motivation for the things you have to do, but when your remember where you're going and why you're doing what you're doing, it makes it much easier. This class has helped me keep on top of assignments in a similar way it has helped you, if it has. I find that managing my time when I have a heavy workload is imperative to success, but you seem to have it down considering the quality of work you put forth! Great job
