Reflection On My Three Habits

1183 Words5 Pages

My three habits I have three main habits that have been with me throughout my entire life. My first habit is I am very good at managing my time, and turning in assignments on time. My second habit is being responsible with all of my assignments as well as doing work around my house. My third and final habit is that I am very trustworthy when working in groups or getting tasks done when asked to do them at home. These habits have really impacted my life and have brought me forward to success. I believe that all good habits are very beneficial in many ways, and I am willing to develop trustworthiness even more especially when it comes to working in groups. I believe that the ACA program can help me further my cooperation with other …show more content…

Whenever I am given a piece of homework, as soon as I get home I start on it immediately and finish it that day if it is not too long. An example of that is when I get assigned a vocab powerpoint in civics that I did not have enough time to finish it in class. As soon as I sit down at the table to do homework, it is the first thing I have to do. I can complete a sheet of homework accurately in about 10-15 minutes if I have my head straight on the assigned task. This has stuck with me throughout my life since the 1st grade. If I do not do my homework and do not turn it in on time my mother gets very frustrated with me and she makes me do it right then and their. If I do not finish it by the time I have my swim practice, I have to complete it after I come back from it. I really do not like doing homework after swim practice because I am really tired and just want to go to bed. That is one reason I always am responsible with doing my homework before the day it is due or however many days are left before it is due. When, and if, I finish homework before swim practice I get to watch tv or be on my phone. If not, I have to work and work until it is time for me to head out to swim practice. The only exception of going to swim practice if I still have homework to do is if there is barely anything for me to do then I can still go to swim practice. I am responsible when I have to study for a quiz or a test. As I …show more content…

I've always been driven to do the best I can in every subject. When I was younger, I never really cared about homework or paying attention because I always thought that whatever the teacher was talking about wasn't going to be relevant to when i got older. Once I started middle school, that whole mindset changed. My mom was on my case about every single subject. Sixth grade was a struggle for me.

Beowulf was a perfectionist. He carried out his plans of killing the monsters meticulously, that way ensuring he actually defeated them. Just like Beowulf, I have to ensure I complete all my endeavors perfectly. This practice often leads me towards stress, frustration, and poor time management when it comes to schoolwork. In the past three years of high school, this problem has impeded me from finishing essays, homework and other activities not related to school such as decorating my room.

Narrative Rough Draft The hardest part of my daily routine, was the time when I knew I needed to start my homework, but I really just wanted to keep watching shows on netflix. The only problem was the voice in my head that was always telling me “ Don’t worry about your homework just yet.” and “ But since this last episode ended on a cliffhanger, I have to watch the next one to see what happens.” Most of the time I was able to ignore this little voice and do what I know I had to do, but somedays it was harder. I decided to continue procrastinating for another episode.

Being trapped I can 't-do this I can 't-do anything This is stupid I’m stupid. Everything is stupid, I quit i witnessed this moment when I had to do English homework. I feel like I don’t want to do my homework but I have to do an assignment or even just the idea of homework, often even before the work comes out of my backpack.

On those days at school I know that I have to get most of my homework done there because I know that I won’t have enough time when I get home from school to do it before I leave for practice. Also time management has helped me with school work in general. During study hall I know what work I have to do and how much time I need to spend on it so I know that I’ll also have time to do my other work that I may have to do that day.

Overall Homework is just something we put on the list of things to do on the weekend, and leaves us stressing out if we will be able to have time to do everything we have to do on the weekends. It leaves us with barely any free time at all, and keeps us away from spending time with our families. Why should you care? Have you ever seen how long your child has stayed up or just been doing homework in general? You probably do not see it or recognize it but they will spend hours doing homework.

Having too much homework stresses a person out, lowers grades, and doesn’t get done because one has little time available. “[S]tudies have found that high school students may also be overburdened with homework- so much that it’s taking a toll on their health” (Levy 3). Stress can be caused by excessive amounts of homework, which can be bad for your health- hence why being burdened with so much homework can cause a strain on one’s health. Due dates stress a person out because someone will get homework and it’ll be due the next day. What about work?

A professor at the University of Toronto, Lee Bartel, studied the effects of homework on children by testing data on over twenty-thousand students and concluded with results showing that homework does indeed have the effects of causing stress and anxiety. Research preformed by Stanford Graduate School of Education examined the different effects of homework on students' well-being and discovered that students that worked on homework for longer than three hours a night are negatively impacted. It proves in a rise in stress levels along with physical health problems. Since the students are constantly bombarded with work, they have no phase during the day towards hobbies for themselves to go pump up weights in the gym to relieve stress or to play sports and fix their health problems for example. Jason Sapan, a parent of a student in White Plains, says that “it by takes the joy out of kids who are exceptional, and overwhelms those who are struggling.”

Lea Theodore, Ph.D., a professor of school psychology at the college of William states, “Yet homework can be a problem at the other end of the socioeconomic spectrum as well. Kids from wealthier homes are more likely to have resources such as computers, Internet connections, dedicated areas to do schoolwork, and parents who tend to be more advanced and more available to help them with tricky assignments. Kids from disadvantaged homes are more likely to work at after-school jobs, or to be home without supervision in the evenings while their parents work multiple jobs.” This means kids who are not as wealthy or do not have parents help have problems with doing or completing their homework.
