Beginning Semester Reflection and Goal Setting - Liakos

My writing is not the best; however, I do enjoy some of my past writing. I enjoy writing about sports, history, and economics. I enjoy learning new things about related topics in my life. I find writing boring and somewhat undesirable when I do not enjoy the topic or do not relate it to my personal life. 

Some strengths I like to think I have are good brainstorming and creative ideas for writing. I would like to improve my formatting and time management in writing. I seem to fall into a pit whenever I see a deadline, leading to heavy procrastination. I also find myself waiting until the last minute to actually start writing out a draft or a final essay. 

One goal I would like to set for myself is to become a more professional writer and to learn how to work with others when discussing writing or any professional aspect of writing. Also to stop procrastinating when writing or brainstorming.
