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.

  1. 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.

Unity Free Tutorials

I did some research to try and find some decent unity tutorials and I came across a website called 'Udemy'. It is an online learning and teaching marketplace. It has a huge sale on at the moment for black Friday where all tutorials are only €9.99. So I went ahead and bought a tutorial for how to build a first person shooter. Udemy I tried out the tutorial and it was going good, it was teaching me how to change certain aspects of the character like the distance he could jump as well as how fast he can run etc. Then it got to a script for making the gun fire which wouldn't work for me. It was a very small script which was bout 2 lines so I know i had everything right. I tried downloading the version of unity that he had which was unity 5.5 and then tried to open my project in it and then it was saying it was missing something. It's annoying that certain thing's work in the different versions. So it looks like I am going to have to start again on unity 5.5 and...
