A Reflection On Procrastination

As I reflect on the group presentation, all that comes to mind is the word procrastination. The preparation process was a little frustrating because not everyone in the group took the project as seriously as the rest of us. The deadline crept up on me kind of quickly because one minute we had a month to prepare and the next we only had two days. It started off as if we would have no problems getting this project finished with time to spare. We set dates to meet, assigned parts, and established deadlines for us to have certain things finished before each meeting.

The issue we faced in our group was trying to coordinate meetings when everyone in the group had a life of their own and other things that they had to do. We only managed to meet

When you work as a team, it really shows a person’s work ethic and character. It was not all bad, in fact I gained a lot of respect for my group members throughout this process.

That was not entirely true because fifteen minutes before the presentation, they were typing up the information. I chose to have a positive attitude about the whole thing and help as much as possible.

We did speak well overall, but our lack of preparation showed. My favorite part of the presentation was the activity at the end, I was just a little relieved that we goth through the rough part and felt as though our game livened things up. Procrastination was our main issue and next time, I for one will try harder not to do
