Goal is something that we want to achieve.

Setting a goal helps motivate students to do work, attend classes and study for exams.

Therefore, I use these 5 steps that I've learned to set a goal :

- Write down what you want to accomplish.
- Write down any obstacles.
- Write down any resources available to you.
- Review and revise your tentative goal statement.
- Polish your goal statement.]]> 2020-10-24 02:50:32 UTC https://padlet.com/nurizzaamirah/b6igrhyvu3m3q5s7/wish/857676505 NurIzzaAmirah https://padlet.com/nurizzaamirah/b6igrhyvu3m3q5s7/wish/857743287 Assalamualaikum and Hi :D

It is also important for us to know our priorities. Once we sort out our priorities, we will find it easier to focus on one thing at a time. Hence, we are able to give better quality to our work performance.

There are many ways to sort our priorities. For instance, using JTA (Job Task Analysis) method. 

This method can help us to simplify complex tasks. Hence, reduce mistakes and improve existing processes and procedures.

Other than JTA, To-Do list is much easier and faster to sort our priorities. Especially, for students who love to keep thing simple. 
Like me.

I do think that To-Do list gives us a sense of accomplishment right after we've done our tasks.

Sensory memory is the memory gathered through human's five sense. Things we see, hear, smell, taste and touch. 

Short term memory is the memory that human actively thinks about. For example, reading notes. If we keep on memorizing it, it can turn into a long term memory.

Long term memory is a memory that can be permanent.
