Timed writing everything, everything

The time that I felt that I couldn't breathe was when I had all these deadlines for many projects and many assignments due for school.  I was so stressed with school and work and I was just too overwhelmed.  But I motivated myself and I was able to finish exactly what was needed to be done on time and I felt very satisfied with my work.  I was happy in the end because I felt that I was just going to break down and not be able to complete my work.  But I guess it is right with what they say "hard works pays off." To me I know that those sleepless nights will pay off in the end.
