Day 4: Last Day of the Week Reflections

Oh boy, the week flew by! When I started the camp, I was slightly concerned about my decision to focus on the Introduction instead of Chapter 5. Now on the last day of the first week, I feel confident about my decision. I'm so close to the finishing line with this Intro chapter, and it feels good to be able to say that I accomplished something in its entirety. I will try to keep this up and get the Historical Background section completed today, which I estimate to be about 2-3 more pages. I will update at the end of the session!


Update:

I wrote 1 3/4 pages, which is less than my estimated page count. The primary goal, however, was to complete the section, so in that sense, I can gladly say that I have finished the section. Today went quite quickly likely because I'm now used to working 3-hour chunks. I also can't emphasize enough on the importance of small goals in managing the work and feeling accomplished at the end of each work session.

  1. I like that you don't get down-hearted about the "estimated page count" and focus on whether you achieved the "primary goal." I agree--feeling accomplished is so good for the productive mind!
