Work Hard Or Work Smart (2A)

From this weeks readings I found the work hard or work smart reading to be the most helpful. From reading this I learned that I have to become more organized. This first week of college was a mess for me. I was forgetting to print assignments, do readings and I had trouble knowing what the assignments even were so I would come to class not even knowing I had an assignment due that day. So to become more organized I bought a planner, a calendar, uploaded all my syllabus’s to my main screen of my laptop and I check my emails and black board everyday. In result of me doing these things I feel like I have been more organized.

I also learned that making a goal for yourself will help you become successful. You have to be self-motivated in order to achieve the goal though. Setting a goal for yourself in anything will make you work hard and become successful. My goal each day is to organize all my homework but writing down what is due for what class and what day it is due. Then I try and get my homework done the day before the class is due so that I am not stressing out over not getting it done or having to stay up late hours of the night to get it done before class the next day.

Tom weber the author of the work hard or work smart blog says that working smart=making a plan and working hard=working the plan. In order to be successful I believe that you have to do both of these steps. You have to set a plan for what you are going to do for that week and then strive for the goal you set of what you are going to achieve.

"WORK SMART, WORK HARD AND LIVE STRONG!"
