“If I knew then what I know now?"

“If I knew then what I know now?" is a phrase that takes on more meaning when you are regret on something. Why I said so? Because I feel so guilty that I had wasted 4 weeks time on relaxing bring about lots of assignments' deadline are nearly approaching and I have not started yet! 
This semester I took 6 subjects and 2 out of 6 are full coursework. Although I always remind myself that I must do the assignment according to the time table, but then at last I always burning the midnight oil to rush and complete the assignment before the day of assignment deadline. After revealed my assignment marks was low, I will keep blaming to myself because of the laziness and have to study hard for final to get pass! 
I think 10 out of 10 of UTARians sure have this bad habit! ALWAYS LAST MINUTES WORK! Last week during Dr GV tutorial class, he wanted we show him the draft of individual management principle assignment, but nobody stand out and show him because no one started this assignment yet! Then Dr GV told lots of things that we shouldn't always last minutes work. He said lecturers are always trying to help us but the problem is students ungrateful. I don't mind he said like that, maybe its true? 
  I always force myself to change these bad habits but failed. 'A leopard cannot change its spot' like we cannot change our human nature. If you really want to change, it's takes long time. During that period is like a war between our determinations to fight with bad habits. If you’re a very strong determination person, I’m sure you can do it. Because failure will never overtake the person if his/her determination to succeed is strong. 
 For people like me weak always do things in brief period of enthusiasm sure will take longer times to goal compared to aggressive people. The price of success is hard work, dedication to the job at hand, and the determination that whether we win or lose, we have applied the best of ourselves to the task at hand.
