Learning Challenges: H.E.A.R.T.

Of the H.E.A.R.T. topics, I'm most interested in Attention and Time. I feel like I used to do pretty well with time management, but the longer I'm in school and the more I do, the shorter my attention span becomes. Last spring in particular I had issues with procrastinating and not being able to focus on my schoolwork, which in turn made the semester even more anxiety-inducing than it already was. It wasn't bad enough to have negative consequences for my grades, but I'd really rather not repeat the tiredness and constant stress of that spring. Anyway, re-discovering my attention span and time management skills would be welcome this semester as well as help my mental health.

I tend to get wrapped up in school and completely forget about the things that I once enjoyed. I liked this image posted on Learning by HEART, because it reminded me that by doing what I enjoy (like reading) along with school, I'll probably help myself deal with some of the stress and bad moods I have each semester.
