Here it is. 5 AM. And I'm sitting on the couch fantasizing about a plush down comforter, bookoos of pillows, and the softest of blankets. And all because I have no sense of time management or discipline. I've done it yet again! Rather than being assertive and actually completing homework, assignments, and meaningless tasks, I've procrastinated to the very limit and left little to no time for preparation and actual work. Same ole story. EVERY TIME.
Just in case you're wondering, I have an exam in a few hours. An exam that definitely requires an abundance of studying and review; especially considering that no teaching is forthcoming during class. BUT, I'm not too worried about it. Hence, the break from frantic-page-turning to post this here message. :]
I consider this practice a fault of psychology, for it's nothing more than simple conditioning. It pans out like this. Exam approaches. During previous exams, presence during class and quick reviews have guaranteed a respectable grade. Commence exam, grades posted, Stephanie mollified. Future conduct elicits the same approach with similar results. It's as easy as that.
Anywho, this may very well be the worst posting ever, but perhaps my brain is actually focusing on pediatric healthcare for a bit. <---SHOCKER! It seems as if I may need to resume the desperate attempt at salvaging my education and end this rambling a little early. But leave with this question, what tasks seem impervious or resistant to you after conditionalization? And like myself, should you reassess these extremely important tasks, and embrace the value they hold? Let's just say, the young boy with cerebral palsy isn't going to care for himself. It is my duty to provide the best healthcare possible to the masses in need. What's yours?
