Thoughts about time management strategies

"The important habit of just starting" is one of the articles i read. I found it interesting as i am one of those people that always put work off until the last second and then end up handing in not so good work and reading all the solutions for trying to help not procrastinate has given me a bit of hope. All my life I have always put off school/college work because I could never concentrate and would always find distractions and from doing so in my head I just have this thought that no matter what I try I know more then likely it isn't going to work, so I don't even try. I also know my work wont be as good as others so that also puts me off but after reading this article it's made me think that any work is better then none.
"3 Steps to Recapture Time" is the second article I have read. I also found this article interesting as it explains calm ways to set out your day's work and use a lot of metaphors which I like as for me makes it easier to connect with what I am reading.

    Chloe, I'm the same with you. When I have an idea for a project I don't really go with that idea because I'm afraid it won't work out and would be a waste of time but after reading all the different article for this module. You shouldn't compare your work with others and doing your work you will get feedback. Using and taking in the feedback you can learn and improve. You never know your work could be so much better than the first one and you shouldn't rush them or overwork yourself. Anyways, good luck and I wish for you to create something that you love and won't compare your work with others.

Introduction to me

Well....my name is Chloe Traynor, I am from Wicklow and live up in the mountains in the middle of no where. I did a 2 year multimedia plc course in Blackrock to get into the second year of this course. I've been into computers since I was very young as one of my older brothers was a techy guy and showed me the ways.  I went on a J1 to the USA for the summer with 2 of my friends and it was the best experience of my life so far. you meet so many new people not just from America but from all over the world like Bulgaria, Thailand, Taiwan and Australia.

First Playable

I downloaded a assets pack from the asset store called 'citizen of the forest'. I thought this pack would be handy so as I could add some buildings with detail like for instance to add different set's of furniture. I was thinking maybe I could add into my game where the player can take a nap in the bed to gain health back. I then downloaded some asset's from Jimmy Vegas's site. I used his package with the tree's and grass. I Decided to go with this as I've used these asset's before so I know they work good. I Downloaded a gun from the asset store and attached it to the FPS controller by watching a Jimmy Vegas tutorial on YouTube. His tutorial show's how to attach an axe to a player so I'm going to have to find one where it shows me how to make a gun shoot. I have been making my game between two different computer's which have different version's of unity and i keep getting error's here and there which is very annoyi...
