WOW

If there was one thing about my academic challenges what would it be? I would quite simply state two things, organization of my time and procrastination. The latter first, I have found the flex schedule to be good and very bad. Good in the fact that you have some options for your week, so if something comes up wednesday evening you still have another option to get to a seminar without using option 2. which in my opinion is not an option at all, missing the live discussion is the best way to go to class. Now for the bad, it allows for you to convince yourself that you have other chances to get to class so you can put off seminar to another day even though in your heart you know that the best time for you is right now. So you can see procrastination at its finest right here at work.
The other factor is organization of my time, which I do think is a little more serious problem for me right now. I work as a PD/Instructor at another school, I have my own private Massage Therapy practice, I volunteer as a youth coach, I am trying to go to school(10 credits), and I have a wife of over 30 years that I love to be with daily. Time is a huge factor, the PD/Instructor is a new position with a new school starting a new program, this one right now is very time consuming right now. In fact it brings the next little bullet into consideration, how is school influencing my life, it is school that helped me land this current job. It is finishing this education that will enable me to continue at an even higher level with this school so I know how important this is right now to me. It is just getting abetter grip that I am having trouble with at the present moment. I know it will be ok it is just right now I have the appearence of a multiplr train wreck, things are all over the place. In fact right now is a great example I woke myself up thinking about this project at 430 in the morning and said I have time now lets do it and here I am finishing it at 530 in the morning. Have a gheat day and see you later.

  1. Hey there. Long time not hear from. I have finally graduated-yes I did say graduated with my BSN and now I am working on my MSN. I have at long last decided I want to teach students how to be better nurses.
