After seeing the video I realized one of my hardest life learning habits is number 6. "Using technology to your advantage. Although technology is helpful for most people, I always find it so difficult. Computers have been around my whole life but other than typing papers, and emailing I tend to stay away. Already this class is making me blog. Me blogging, is something I would have never done on my own. I doubt I am the only one. I hope others will share their ideas about blogging. I barely have a facebook and to be truthful my sister made it for me. I hope this class helps me with my fear. When it comes to technology I always end up with a migraine. I get discouraged easily. I find myself stressed over a simple task. I know once I reach my goal I will realize more useful tools of technology.
The easiest life long learning habit is number 1. "Begin with the end in mind." I have always set goals because once I have reached them i feel a sense of accomplishment. I always know what I want to do and research what I have to do to get it. This attitude helped me with my undergraduate courses in terms of my graduation. When I finished a semester and received a passing grade I would always say, "6 more for graduation." Every small accomplishment was important because I had the end result in mind. No matter how much I struggled the end result kept me from stopping.
