The second learning was related my goal to put myself first. This was much harder to follow and commit to doing as was meant in the action plan. The most difficult part was to speak out when I felt that now I needed to do something that was not in line with my objective. And even more difficult was when these events happened in my family environment (with people you care). One example in my action plan weekly note illustrates quite well the challenge. “During the week we had a moment when Katri (wife) invited her sister’s son to stay over the night, without consulting me (and she knows that I need to study). I felt overruled since I was in pressure to study during the night and it is not possible when youngsters hang around. I raised the topic …show more content…
For that, I feel making progress during the TLE process. I have put my own objective much more clear and decided that I will start to seek that to live the full life and be happy next 20 - 25 years I had to still be in work life. I did spend some time during the holidays to reflect my leadership goal and career plan, asked myself a question “what I really want to do” and we discussed the topic with my wife and friend. With my wife, we also clarified a lot of my “mental” obstacles to executing my plan. E.g. if I rationalise that I might be looking a new position from Europe or maybe even from Canada, my usual thinking is that I need to find a solution that is fit for both of us. She said that I am worrying that too much. Find first a new position that you fancy about, then let’s figure out how do we handle the other stuff. This will help a lot with my own career planning and without the TLE I thinking we might not have clarified this kind of “obstacles” in …show more content…
When adding that in my action plan I assumed that my plan was originally more to develop my humanistic encouraging domain, but after receiving the LSI Other results I believe that the real target that I was seeking is to avoid slipping in too much of oppositional side. My hypothesis is that I am unconsciously aware of my frustration with my current career positions and progress and I see that I am at risk of coming cynical and too oppositional (the results are still in OK level). This finding was a valuable and with the S+T=R I feel that I can now control that to my
According to the LSI information provided, when your achievement score is greater and the humanistic-encouraging and affiliative scores are less, a concern for task accomplishment will diminish a concern need for others. Evidently this imbalance is reducing my overall effectiveness. When I put this under my microscope, I find that this charact...
In this Learning Style essay, I reflect on an experience during my practicum where a conflict with a superior allowed me to see both the positive aspects and hindrances in my learning style. These nuances in my learning style, which I gained more insight of with the LSI and LCS, have allowed me to critically analyze how I will make my learning as a nursing student more effective.
As a seventh grade student, I took a science course because it was required. At first I was scared about how well I would do and if I would get a good grade throughout the year. When the school year started, I met my teacher and he seemed really nice and he turned out to be an awesome teacher. I excelled in my science seven class and overthrew my fear of getting poor grades. My seventh grade year was the year I determined what I wanted to go to college for and that would be life science education. As I moved up the scale throughout high school I became a better student, a better athlete, and a better leader. I had the support of my family, my teachers and my friends. This helped me achieve the major goals I had set out for myself.
“Never underestimate your own strength. You were born for a purpose and are blessed with the power to achieve it” (Leon Brown). I have this quote printed out and on the wall next to my door so I can see it every day as a reminder to myself. I believe that we all have a purpose on this earth and that everything we go through on the journey there has a reason whether to teach a lesson or set an example. We have places where we want to end up and goals we want to achieve. We set these goals and dreams to help us fulfill the purpose we see for ourselves. I believe my purpose is to help people in their times of need. To fulfill my purpose, I will need to use my personal, academic and career goals to create a pathway to get to where I want to be
Currently, I have completed 9 12-hour shifts in the medical/surgical ICU, during this time I have made excellent progress in attaining my established goals. I completed sub-goal 1 and have completed approximately 75% of sub-goal 2. I was successful as my goals this semester were realistic and achievable within the short time frame (10 weeks). In total I created 4 unique and specific activities to assist in achieving my overarching learning goal.

Getting a job is probably the most worrisome matter for college seniors. Nowadays most students deem college education as an investment that can eventually bring profits in the long run in terms of a financially successful career. To this end, a great number of students major in the most lucrative majors, which are not their actual interests. Luckily, I am able to dive into the field I love in college, and it blends with my career goal perfectly. I like teaching and conducting research, so I hope to become a psychology professor at a research university some day.
I started my college career without a clear objective. In my youth once things became hard I stopped preforming and moved quickly on to another goal. I was not focused and felt I lacked the dedication needed in order to successfully preform in academic life. I was able to get by and graduate but my GPA suffered.
I found several helpful strategies throughout this course but the ones I found to be most beneficial were the ones on setting goals and managing financial resources. By identifying my specific goals and then divi...
understand that being proactive is one of the most powerful ways to ensure my success. One of the keys to my success is the ability to think about my own thought process. This is called self awareness, and this is the reason humanity can make significant advances from generation to generation. Self awareness allows me to evaluate and learn from my own experiences and the experiences of others. This is the key to making and breaking my habits. Only when I take how I see myself into account will I be able to access my full personal potential and my ability to relate to others. Thanks to self awareness, I can examine my paradigms and determine if they are based in reality. The key to being self aware is to reject the social mirror that feeds
As we know, human being keep learning though all their lives, Sometimes I am thinking how we adult learning. In this book, I found them--some related concepts about adult learning and ways to Self-Direct Learning(SDL). Before reading this book. I already knew what is the adult learner is. In China, students who are over 18 years old are the adult in General Principles Of the Civil Law. In some perspectives, University education can be called adult education. It is new for me to learn this knowledge, so I chose the first eight chapters of the textbook.
We learned about money management and time management, smarter reading and note-taking, working in groups, using available resources effectively, making plans for life and of course, being happy. I found those extremely useful.They are not only for this class, but also for a working environment, for our daily life. One of my weakness is procrastination, which is the biggest challenge for me to achieve my goals. From the beginning of this quarter, I set up an daily agenda, and I had been using it for the whole quarter! It is amazing for me to get in the habit of making agenda and do work according to it. Time blocking, another strategy presented in class is useful, which reduces my
Everyone has a different view on how they learn and learning itself. First starting in EXP 105, my understanding of learning was new knowledge and becoming wiser. Taking EXP 105 has truly increased my knowledge of what learning is and the process of it. The most important thing I have learned about learning is that you observe the world around you, make sure it is understandable, and figure out the right way to respond. Learning also provides critical thinking skills. Everyone have different ways of learning and those ways are based on four different learning patterns. The four different types of learning patterns are Sequence, Precision, Technical Reasoning, and Confluence. Learning patterns are very helpful when it comes to everyday life, school work, and your job. Knowing your learning patterns and which ones you should use make
Mastering one’s self is essential in reaching one’s full potential. In this paper I will attempt to articulate what it means to achieve personal mastery. I will first provide my own personal portrayal of personal mastery. Following, I will illustrate examples from my life, and what personal mastery means to me.
According to the study of this course, I have learned many useful management skills and I feel like these skills will be applied to my future career development. When working on the self- assessment tests, I found myself fall into the category of the ISTJ personality types, which as illustrated by Myers Briggs, is the type of personality that is conscientious, considerate, and helpful. Personality traits such as honest, dutiful, practical and responsible are my strengths; personality traits such as stubborn, insensitive and poor communication skill are my weaknesses. Related to the knowledge I have learned in the course I believe both strengths and weakness will have influence to my future career development. In this reflection paper, I will demonstrate the strengths and weaknesses that may place the most influence on my way of success.
