1. The behaviors that I demonstrated through this course have been unprecedented work ethic, will power, the hunger to be better than everyone in life. Those have been my motivating factors on what keeps me going. Wanting to be at the top of my game, and having an internal locus of control that drives me forward everyday. Whether that is pursuing class requirement goals, or personal and life goals. I have been a determined individual my whole life. My friends, or people that know me will define me as hustler, but not in a derogatory term, but in a positive way.
2. Not just me, but everyone feels like giving up at some point. But, going back to my 1st point, is that the fear of failure far outweighs my temporary feeling of giving up. I believe to be successful you need to do things others do not. Whether that is working more, working smarter, listening, adapting, comprehending. You need to be continuously growing an getting better. There has definitely been times where I felt like giving up with this class. But wanting to develop and open, entrepreneurial mind, and graduate, of course, have kept me going.
3. Three tips I would give are: One, start early. two, overcome mental barriers, learn how to think creatively and innovate. Three, Learn how to disconnect.
Hey Cody, I enjoyed reading your halfway reflection. You definitely seem like a very determined and hard working person. I know that at times I too have felt like giving up on this class, The assignments aren't difficult, it's just that sometimes I will wait until the last minute, and it is a struggle to get them finished on time. Your tip about starting early is very useful.
ReplyDeleteHey Cody, I relate to the felling of wanting to give up, but wanting the best for myself, that fear of failure, the fear of not doing my best pushes me to keep going. I do agree that stating early is one of the best methods for this class. I really appreciate the tip about thinking differently, I have found that doing so helps me to completely the assignments more efficiently.
