Motivation for Continuing Studies and Overcoming Past Academic Challenges

I'm determined to continue my studies because I've identified my motivation factors and goals for graduation. I aspire to become a construction engineer, which requires a strong education and training. However, I acknowledge that past semesters presented challenges affecting my academic performance. I didn't do well because I didn't attend class regularly, take notes, or pay attention to lectures. I was distracted by texting, browsing the internet, and other non-academic activities. I also didn't study enough or use effective study methods. My poor time management skills made it difficult to balance coursework with other activities, and I often became frustrated with my performance. Looking back, I also realize I didn't keep up with the required reading for my courses. Despite these setbacks, I'm committed to improving my academic performance and achieving my goals.
