Seeking advice about salvaging the capstone class

[cookderosa]

Wow at the bolded. Even though I fully own and am really beating myself up for my laziness and culpability with this, that really gives me something to think about.

Not to be overly dramatic, but I am really used to quitting (when it comes to school), so fighting would definitely trigger something new in my brain. I'm only half-kidding.

I love that you wrote that! I think people can feel sensitive about this, and I'm glad you didn't misunderstand what I wrote in any kind of personal judgy way. There are things in my life I know I can do, so I do them. I know I can swim a mile, as such, if I'm in the water, I WILL swim 66 laps. No question. I'm not even feeling it until the last dozen or so; it wouldn't enter my mind to stop. In the same breath, I will tell you I've never ran 2 miles without stopping. Every step is torture. Every step I'm talking myself into stopping.

It's a mind game. I think it applies to school or sports or anything really.
