I don't think I'll make it a habit to physically write things down but I think when I am feeling any negative energy towar...

Canvas Notifications: I have turned my canvas notifications off and on throughout the semester to see what I have preferred.

I think this will change my experience with Canvas and help produce a more affective outflow and inflow of information. Notifications can help more productivity.  Web Source
