Half-way Reflection

1) The behaviors I have used to keep up with the requirements of this course include lots of time management and thinking outside of the box.
2) As a student taking 17 credits, involved in extracurricular activities, and with a job I can definitely say that there have been plenty of moments in which i felt like giving up. The only thing that pulled me through was constantly reminding myself that I am in this no matter what and that I can do anything that I set my mind to. I know that all this hard work will only pay off in the future. It has not been easy but it so worth it. Believing in yourself is the most important factoring in being a successful student.
3) Three tips I would offer net semester's students about fostering the skills that support tenacity and developing the 'tenacious mindset' are to 1) Manage your time wisely. Write everything down and take one day at a time. 2) Don't overwork yourself, you'll regret it later. Yeah school is very important but without your health there won't be any school to look forward to. 3) Stay strong and make sure you complete things on time. Don't procrastinate!

    I would have to definitely agree with you that time management in this class is the key to success, especially since there are multiple assignments due a week. One tip I really liked was not over working yourself, sometimes you have to take a break and enjoy yourself.

  2. Isabellla,

    Congrats on your blog post! I would definitely agree with the tips you gave for next year's students. If you look at my blog which I posted the link too, you will see that mine are about the same as well. I also could not imagine taking this class with 17 credits so good work!

    Alexandra,

    Congrats on your blog post and making it this far in the class. Also, you have designed your personal blog really well too. I would one hundred percent agree with your tips for incoming students next year. I listed the exact same three in my blog which I linked below.

    Brianna,

    Awesome job on your blog post and interview! The video you made was great a lot better than mine especially since people are saying my video is not working when it is working for me. It is interesting that you were right on the twenty percent as well, the person that I interviewed was exactly right on theirs as well.

    Congrats on your assignment it is one of the best ones I have seen which I have been assigned. I kind of disagree when you said that he was not thinking about the underage people coming into his bar. I think it was something that he did not want to share in an interview with his company name.

  3. Isabella,
    I cannot imagine taking 17 credits, especially with a class like this that has different assignments due almost every other day. I 100% agree with the tips you have for next semester's students. I especially agree with what you said about writing everything down and taking it one day at a time.
