Plan for Skye Gellmann

by Skye Gellmann · 05/13/2003 (8:27 am) · 0 comments

I've been having trouble getting motivated with a lot of things lately. Mainly, my homework, and game development have both gone down the toilet. I've been feeling really low motivated. So let this be a kind of, " Get Skye Organised " kind of plan.

Firstly, I'm spending too much wasting my homework time playing computer games. I believe this is my main motivational downfall. By doing homework first and leaving computer games till after I will greatly improve my personal motivation and organization. This inturn will help me become more motivated to do other things like game development. Thus becoming a better person. I should start homework 15 minutes after I get home from school. I should do homework solidly for about an hour. After that, I'll allow myself to drift and do things at a more restful rate. Once I've done my homework, I should probably sit down in front of my computer. I will work on a project, like web or game design until about 8:30pm (and of coarse have dinner too). At 8:30pm, I will then go onto the Internet. I could then either play some games or just surf a bit. I should go to bed at 10:30pm. I've been going to bed after 1:00am. I'm only getting 5-6 hours sleep max... mostly about 4 hours actually... I feel screwed. This has been making me feel really, really low. So by going to bed earlier, I will be more energised and thus become more motivated... and thus the cycle continues and I will become a better, less tired (YAY, no more blood shot eye's for this gamer!), more motivated, and get the CHICKS like all the other game developers out there!
