Peaches and Rainbows and Netflix Binges

The obstacles preventing me from creating my Fear Assignment . . .

                           i.          Not having enough time to create it.

§  What if I sacrifice a week of my social life and alone time because unfortunately life just can’t always be peaches and rainbows and Netflix binges?

§  What if I ignore my other homework assignments and focus only on this one because it’s more entertaining and beneficial to my well-being?

§  What if I pull an all-nighter with some Red Bull?

                         ii.          Forgetting to create it because I lose track of time.

§  What if I put post-it notes all over my room and car to remind me?

§  What if I tell all my friends, family, and coworkers to call/text/send a carrier pigeon to remind me?

§  What if I use this act of forgetfulness to my advantage to further elaborate on my fear (but what is my fear?—stay tuned)?

                        iii.          Becoming too stressed about the assignment so my brain represses the deadline, thus I forget to do it.

§  What if I take up yoga and eat (somewhat) healthier foods to boost good brain chemicals so I am more relaxed and positive?

§  What if I stay on campus to complete it since that environment makes me feel more focused & productive?

§  What if I pay one of my crafty friends to do it for me?

                        iv.          Procrastinating (because I would rather be doing other things) so I don’t have enough time to complete it with full efficiency.

§  What if I realize how much of a breeze this assignment is compared to other class assignments and just get it out of the way?

§  What if I tell my grandma to not allow me to leave the house or turn on the television until I complete everything?

§  What if I recite “work now, play later” in my head over and over until I’m brainwashed into being a timelier & more productive college student?

                          v.          Not being talented enough to accurately represent my mental idea.

§  What if I just stop worrying about my lack thereof hands-on art skills since my talents lie within the digital and word realm?

§  What if I simply embrace the work that I am able to accomplish instead of focusing on the work that I can cannot accomplish?

§  What if I have a bunch of my friends tell me how awesome my completed assignment is to boast my confidence?
