I've been having a lot of trouble doing my work and it's severely overdue. I'm now finally making some real progress because I'm using the strategy of concentrating on tiny, tiny pieces.
I get overwhelmed when thinking of the essay as a whole. First of all, I'm terrified of the word. In books as a child, essays were presented as terrible things, awful and difficult. I haven't gotten over that. That's what screwed me for the UTS entrance exams. I got past the first part fine. Multiple choice and I get along fairly well except when you do those evil tricksy questions.
Break it down. Just one tiny portion. I will need to sleep soon, though, but I'll try to hold out until I really do lose my mind.
