Writing: I love and hate it!

At first, I thought I was going to be a good writer but I realized it wasn't as easy as I thought it was going to be. There's so many rules you have to remember when writing. Furthermore, the pressure of writing a paper always gets frustrating to me. I worry whether my paper is good enough to get an A. I become so critical with myself that I couldn't concentrate and think of anything to write. However, I love the free writing part of writing because I can write everything that's on my mind without worrying about my grammar errors and my organizations. I am free to say whatever I want to say without any restrictions and worries that I might make a mistake or my ideas might not make sense. Free writing enables me to be myself and express my thoughts openly, that's why I love free writing.

Deadlines!

My advice to anyone who struggles meeting deadlines is to accept that you have a problem with it. Then you need to figure out the solution, come up with methods to help you stay on schedule. Make a plan and calculate how much time you need to get the task done, prioritize it. If it doesn't work, seek help from friends and family. Read materials to help you understand the purpose of this goal. Having a healthy lifestyle like eating healthy, sleeping well, and with exercise helps the mind function better and make sound decisions. If all else fails, consider seeing a therapist. In some cases, people who have these problems needs professional help, which sometimes can be tremendous to eliminate the problem.
