My Reflection

I was very nervous throughout the whole genius hour process. Everyday that I had set aside to work on my project did not follow through. It seemed as though something else (such as other homework or a social event) came up. Slowly but surely I was running out of time to complete my project. This was when I really started to panic and I found myself rushing to finish it. I was hoping to have completed my project by the middle of November however I was not finished until a month later. I do know for a fact that I could have finished my project on time. It was all a matter of time management, which is something that I am not too good at.
One way that I am planning on improving this matter is by working more efficiently when I get the opportunity. Throughout this project I always had an attitude towards it because I knew I had a lot of time. This caused me to procrastinate and to not work as hard as I know I could have. I was easily distracted and would work at a slow, causal pace. However, eventually I did not have as much time as I had before and this is when my work habits changed. I started getting a lot more work done in way shorter periods of time. If I had this same drive and motivation throughout the whole process I know that I would have finished when I was hoping to.
Overall I was very pleased with my presentation. I feel that I provided all of the information I was hoping too and even more. Although I do know that there is always room for improvement and I know what I need to do to make these improvements.
