Thing #1


After reading the Seven Habits of Highly Successful People and watching the online tutorial, I discovered a few things about my self. I think that the easiest habit for me is Habit 1: Be Proactive. I am goal oriented and have a strong will. However, the hardest habit for me is Habit 2: Begin with the End in Mind. I can be very enthusiastic and energized by the thought of a new idea of project. I do not always think of the steps I need to take to get there. I love this because the 7 habits are easy to remember and logical.

In regards to life long learning. I am a huge proponent for staying up to date in the lastest information. I feel it is important to continually learn something new everyday. If you decide to become a teacher, you decide that you will become a life long learner. When ask to do this learning contract, I figured it would easy. However, it took my a long time to really think about setting goals with tools and when I needed to accomplish the tasks at hand. I had to think about what I wanted to do in the next 6 months and decide what was most important to me. I think it is important for any business, including schools to set short term and long terms goals and check to see if we are meeting those goals.
