T1B51

I realized that to be productive its better to finish one thing, all together, instead of jumping back and forth between different things. If you do one thing and then go do another before the first one is finished, then when you go back to the first one you've lost your train of thought and then you have to spend more time re-doing it. It's like this with piano, like I'll start something that I don't really want to, then I'll go to an easier one, then I'll feel guilty and go back, and I'll have to rethink the whole song again, and then I'll get bored again, and so on and so forth. I sometimes take a really long time to play piano because I'm not focused, and I'll play a song like 6 times separately but not count them, and then I'll have to go back and play it 6 more times because my teacher wanted me to play that song 6 times. It gets really annoying/frustrating at times. But if I do one song/book at a time, I get done really quickly because then I can COUNT the times I play instead of doubling my workload.

It's like this sometimes with homework too, like for the short story for English, sometimes I write a bit then I get off track in my writing, so I save the thing as one draft, do something else, and then I'll go back to English and start all over again because I didn't like my first draft. I'm trying out a few different ideas, and I will go with the one I like most, but skipping around sometimes helps in English, and sometimes doesn't (obviously this draft of the same idea is NOT A GOOD TIME).

Grrr. Well, at least if I get the little-r homework done I'll be all HA, IN YOUR FACE to whoever doubts my work (mwahahahaha) and I'll have motivation for my harder homework. :)
