Self-Regulated Behaviors

   The main problem I had in middle to up until I graduated from high school was how to control my physical environment. I was always one of them students who would always turn homework or classwork in late. However, I was easily distracted and still is . If I was doing homework at home. I would hear too much activity outside of my room. Then eventually I would join the activity. Rather it was playing the video game, going outside to play, texting, holding unimportant conversations with people , or playing basketball. When I was one years away from graduating high school, I would spend at least two hours in the library doing extra credit, studying, doing assigned homework, or reading. Doing that everyday brought my english grade from an F to a B- and my spanish class from a D- to a C+. When I saw the difference in my grades. I learned that my downfall was trying to do homework or study while I was in a rowdy area knowing I am easily distracted. Now til this day I still use the same tactic. Hopefully, it helps me pass my classes.
