Reflection1 : time management and goals setting.

  

         Generally, people think that setting goals is one of the main raison to success and I

agree but making plans to achieve yours goals is the most important part of this process.

After reviewing this unit I asked myself some questions as “why do I need goals?” and

even more  ,I wonder how much questions I missed .Next, I try to get away from

becoming discouraged so I took a  pen and a paper and I writed down some questions

related to my goals in life, then I classified my goals into four sections : -Personal goals –

Academic goals –Career goals and community goals .What I mean by this is my physical,

emotional, professional and spiritual goals .After reviewing this goals setting unit I

improved a lot and I started taking decisions more serious than ever before .I ‘am now  

able to manage my stress whether it is a distress which is consider as a bad one like

when I’m having a bad grade and I have a lot of pressure so I can’t handle with it ,or a

eustress,  which is a positive one ;the one that you have before showing up in front of

audience or family .In order to move from this stress I need to pay intention to my body

and far away from unhealthy ways of relaxing and reducing stress.

         For the time management unit ,I learnt some tricks like writing a schedule that

provides my day ,I also planned to put a calendar in my room which contain all the

information’s and events that I should prepare for .What I disagree with in this unit is

ranking tasks in order of importance because it can make you a lazy person and you will

start procrastinating some obligations just because it is not important as others.

However, the advices in this chapter are very useful and helpful specially because they

are already studied and experienced and somehow I learnt some new words and terms

as procrastination, locus of control, huge outrageous goals .There is no doubt that this

unit helped me and my classmates in several things.
