14 - Halfway Reflection

1) The most important behaviors are organization and environment. Being able to keep track of what is due is extremely important in a course where this is not placed in front of you constantly. Not only that, some assignments are much longer than others. Give yourself a chance at the beginning of the week to read through what each one requires. Additionally, being able to create a productive environment helped me work through the assignments much quicker and more effectively than if I had just done them last minute. Whether this be a quiet place in the library or playing music at home, fostering a place where you feel productive helps you feel motivated to keep working.

2) Motivation can come from many different forms. The one that spoke to me for this course was motivation of something gained. Working on a project that could produce something as well as pushing through for the grade made for very strong motivators.

3) Tip 1: Be aware of deadlines and assignments well before their due date
     Tip 2: Find what environment is the most motivating to you and utilize it to your advantage
     Tip 3: Stick to a project you're actually interested in

I did not receive feedback for the previous pitch so there is none to reflect on. The additions to the content of the pitch reflect the feedback across other comments to this project.
