not to hot, not to cold, jusssst right


Hello,
Im here to talk to you about how to do/pace your self on a project. When you have to get something done what do you do? probably just do it then don't know what to do, sometimes i do that . so you make a plan. what i like to do is look over my assignment, see what needs to be done before others. start easy get the hang then, then collect info/materials for the bigger/harder part. at first i felt really behind because everybody else was way ahead of me, that can be stressful! but going at your own pace is good. if you are to hurry it, you are most likely to miss something!
The hard part is the when you lose motivation, or when someone is pushing your pace a step ahead. You feel so good about your self and you are so confident that you can relax, that's when you know that its time to work Because if you dont start slowly and glide through it it will be a mad rush at the end.its easy for someone like a parent to feel as though they what to help you by pushing you to work and extend your HW time. in the half way reread the assignment, because if you miss some thing small you wont go back and the project wont count.
another thing is that if you are going tho make something spend 1/8 of the time making sure that you have your building materials and other stuff. The point is that you you don't miss a piece, one piece is one fail. another thing that helps me a lot is rewards like a snack or a break to make you want to reach out and grab it.
the most important point is to double check and be satisfied, being satisfied is when you know that your done. if your having problems being satisfied with your work just think how others would evaluate it and fix what is not right. hey, good luck on your project (if your done why are you reading my blog?)

    Wow Kyle, that was an awesome blog. Those ideas and pointers are great ones. I will probably use some for the last part of revolutions. After doing the first few parts i lost my motivation and i had to just keep doing the work without much enthusiasm, but now that i have these pointers it will probably hlp me for the last part of the blog! Thanks,

    Mark

    Hi Kyle,
    Great blog! The ideas and tips are really helpful. At the beginning of the project I felt lost and behind too. I like how you said to go at your own pace. I think that you are right as long as you are where you need to be at the half-way point of the project. Did this strategy and these tips work for you? They seem very helpful but you can never be sure that your pace is too slow. I really like this blog post and I could connect with it because I lost my motivation after starting the Lit Packet. Thanks for all the tips and great blog!

    From,
    Sam

    Hi Kyle,
    These are really good tips. Especially the one about double checking the green sheet. That helped me many times, since Paul doesn't go over everything. I also like the last line. My question is: Why did you choose this title? Is it your name for the system, or does it just fit what you are talking about?
