Reflection post 5

Through out the semester I’ve slowly watched my motivation dwindle down I have a habit of letting my stupid pride get in the way of whets better for me i always believe that I’m good at everything never pushing myself to go harder or motivating myself to work more I become lackadaisical just thinking everything will work out in the end. I believe all this rooted from my belief that our fate is determined but this semester i had promised myself to not repeat the same mistakes that ive repeated in my past the whole reason that i am stuck in this predicament this cycle of failure and remediation and ultimately failure again so this semester i promised to work harder and so far it hasn’t been working for me well at least not in this class. in my English class however I’ve been doing great maybe because its a class that i find much interest in and actually know what I’m doing in there rather then this subject which although I’ve taken this class before always seems to baffle me and be completely new to me. Maybe because I’ve never over analyzed my reading techniques or felt the necessity to do so. I still bolster my motivation with the thoughts of a successful future that I’ve always dreamt of having even if it wasn’t in the academic field id still want a degree to fall back on that pride of doing something that no one has forced you to do that’s what i live for that ever distant ever changing moment of glory where i can stand up in front of the world a winner that simple moment of joy in the sea of the crazy mostly un amazing negative nature of life i live for that one moment of glory that’s what keeps me going . I can do more to boost my motivation theres always room for improvement just to get myself up off the couch and more on the desk more into school. I try things like making friends in the classes im in or making more friends so I can spend more time around school still the lazy part of me just comes into effect. If im able to suppress that laziness ultimately my motivation would drive me to success

  1. Glory, winning you speak of. If you haven't figured it out yet let me help you, you already are a winner, the glory is at the end and begining of each day, you can say I did I made it through today and ready to start a new, just by being here proves that, you have a choice in life either you do or you dont no middle ground. you chose to do. that makes you a winner in my book have faith in yourself and yes our fate is already set for us but its what we do with our lifes before our fate is revealed to us. to finish school, well thats just the icing on the cake that makes it look good. We all get he feeling of being lazy I get that alot too. just dont let it take you over. wish you the best of luck.
