Earlier in the semester, I enacted five goals for myself to better my academic success this semester at the University of Virginia. So far, these goals have been perfect for my growth and success. I can keep up with them and I am interested in maintaining the answers to my goals. I continue to report on my status every week for each of the five goals. I can clearly remember and recount my goals, which is also a sign that these specifics are helping me throughout this current semester. For example, one of my goals was to try and get 8 hours of sleep every night. Not only do I record how many hours of sleep I get each night, but also I now sleep more because I am trying to meet this goal. I always think of it when I am about to go to sleep.
My academic success is largely a part of motivation, as well. I have struggled with this aspect as I usually have little motivation to complete what I need to academically. However, after creating these five goals I am more motivated to finish my work and stay on track with the five records. Currently, my motivation is dropping because I have reached the middle of the semester, but I plan to change this immediately. I need to keep motivated and finish this semester to my best ability.
