What I Learned


      So, I kept my room looking pretty close to spectacular on a daily basis. 



      My desk was clean and organized and I didn't seem to feel overwhelmed by not really having room anywhere. My days seemed in a way, brighter as I entered the my dorm room, coming back from class. 
      My expected outcomes were to have a positive impact on my study habits. I felt that having a more organized study space and just room in general would continue into my daily life and maybe even get my whole life organized in a way.  My research gave me information on what affects your atmosphere and the ability to keep it clean have on a daily routine. There were not any really big problems throughout the research study, other than maybe forgetting to right down what I did for a few days, and then having to try to remember everything the next day. 
      
      From my experience in this study I have found that I am more prone to do homework or some sort of reading instead of just staring mindlessly at a screen. I was becoming more productive in my daily life. I didn't watch anywhere close to as much TV(or watching shows on my computer) as I did before.  I also have begun to see that I have started broadening my organization to my life as well. I started using my calendar on my desk, writing down everything that I wanted to get down that day, or that I just had to do. My whole life seemed to become organized instead of just my dorm room. 

     Here is a graph of hours I watched TV each day for during the 30 days:
    

     As you can see, the number of hours that I watched TV definitely decreased as I got further into the 30 days. This definitely was a positive outcome for me. I realized that I actually got headaches from staring at the screen for long periods of times everyday. I have barely only gotten one or two headaches throughout these 30 days.
