Self-Discipline

5 Areas of my life that lack discipline:
            1. Socializing- I will choose to hang out with friends over studying
            2. Procrastinating- I'll hold off my main priority until the last minute
            3. Family- I have just recently realized how precious family time is and that you should not take it for granted.
            4. Peer Pressure- Not necessarily anything bad but I can be convinced pretty easily by my friends
            5. Food- I cannot say no to any of my favorite foods, although I eat healthy organic food if I see a sweet that I like I will eat it!!

                  I definitely could improve all of these by increasing my time management skills, realize that I can socialize anytime after I get my stuff done and that studying is the most important. My mother has a great deal of discipline, she is able to get everything done within each day. She sets goals and ALWAYS meets them. Balancing a home and a career is difficult but she makes it look easy. I am accountable for my actions and grades. Whether it being to other people or myself. I am the only person who is accountable for me. My parents and friends help out but inevitably I have to make the best decisions concerning me.

OU Mission

I am living the OU Mission statement! The University of Oklahoma is living and following through with their mission statement. I can honestly say that I have learned more this semester than I have in a year of high school. The Professors are excellent and I have enjoyed listening and participating in lectures. I am impressed with the amount of service students and faculty do not only for our campus but for the state of Oklahoma. They provide and offer great sources for any questions I might have. I can go to any building and find courteous and helpful people to interact with. I don't think anything needs to change but maybe the spirit could increase a little, but other than that there's nothing I would change about OU!!! :)
