UVA- What is your favorite word and why- Coherence

I have not finished yet. I'm in a bit of a bunch and I don't know where to go from here. Please critique what I do have and suggestions for additions are much needed! Thanks!

Simply the definition of the word is what most people seek in life. It is what makes an argument reputable. It gives a written composition flow and it is what I have organized my life around. Coherence, from the Latin prefix "co" meaning together and the Latin root "haerere" meaning to cling, means literally "to cling together". Conventionally, however, it means logically ordered and consistent or having overall clarity. Coherence is unique of the infinite number of words in the English language in that it applies to me personally as I constantly strive to incorporate order and simplicity into my life. From the moment I knew what a list was, I made them frequently, detailing the things I needed to do and scheduling how to accomplish them in the most efficient manner. I have always valued simplicity and rationale in all aspects of my life, be it how I organize my clothing or how I approach writing an essay.

Hi, I think this is a solid idea. I'm a little confused as to why people seek the definition of "coherence". People may seek coherence, but I'm not sure they'd seek the definition of coherence. Maybe you can clarify that?

I would reword things to make it flow better.

Conventionally, however, it meansTo be coherent is to be logically ordered and consistent.

" Coherence" is unique in the English language ...

From the moment I knew what a list was, I made them frequently,I make frequent lists, detailing the things I needed to do and scheduling how to accomplish them in the most efficient manner. I have always valued simplicity and rationale in all aspects of my life , be it how I organize my clothing or how I approach writing an essay.

Good luck!

I really like your approach to this. I don't know about the word requirement, but I don't think you need to add too much more to make it a complete and coherent thought. (See what I did there?)

"Constantly striving to incorporate order and simplicity into my life I make lists frequently, detailing the things I need to do and scheduling how to accomplish them in the most efficient manner."

This sentence is awkward; maybe break it up?

Maybe you could add something about how the idea of coherence influences your world view in addition to your personal life?
