Where has the time gone????
After 18 months this journey is slowly coming to an end. I still can't believe it, feels like yesterday I was looking at Universities considering my options in the middle of the first lockdown.
As I start to complete my work on the critical review and the professional artefact I start to doubt everything I have done. I guess that is natural as we approach the submission date, but the fear that I did it all wrong is with me the entire time....
However as I began reflecting on this entire process, I realised no matter if I did it 'right' or 'wrong', I learned an awful lot.
Just a few of those lessons were:
- all my past experiences affect my current practice
- anyone can learn new things no matter their age or ability
- mind is one of the most powerful tools a person can have
- I want to keep questioning, developing and challenging myself professionally
- 'academic' is no longer a scary word for me! :)
As I struggle on completing my work, re-reading and finalising, I hope I can become more confident with what I have done.
After all, 2 years ago I never thought I could even attempt a Maters Degree, never mind actually completing one.
Maybe there will come a point when we can all stop panicking and just take a moment to be proud of our achievement.....
Deep breath....and 10 days till submission!
Good luck everyone!
