Halfway Reflection

1) 

I feel like it's been a lot easier when I work on multiple assignments a little bit over a period of time. That way I'm not cramming for a deadline and can look at them and reflect. Sometimes I can even get feedback from friends and family. Whenever I have the sense to do that I always get my assignments in on or before the deadline and I'm proud of its contents. I've also got in the habit of looking at other peoples posts as a reference point for how much or little I've done per assignment.

2) 

There have been several times where my lack of effort and life got in the way of my assignments. Initially I paid too little attention to this course and I didn't watch the lecture videos. Had I done that I would've known right off the bat that the assignments are invalid without the link to the blog post. Had the professor not felt generous that day all my hard work would have been invalidated and I would've done very poorly overall. Now I make sure to read and look through all details and instructions because I have no desire to fail a course or feel like I did less than my best. 

3) 

I would say one tip is give yourself an opportunity to improve. Whether that be messing up or doing sub par work, see how that makes you feel and hold onto that negative outcome for when you feel like not doing it. I would say to do a little each day so it's never a burden to complete the activities. & lastly reach out when you need help or don't understand an activity.
