7 and 1/2 Habits

7 and 1/2 Habits of Highly Successful Lifelong Learners

Habit 1: Begin with the end in mind
Habit 2: Accept responsibility for your own learning
Habit 3: View problems as challenges
Habit 4: Have confidence in yourself as a competent, effective learner
Habit 5: Create your own learning toolbox
Habit 6: Use technology to your advantage
Habit 7: Teach/mentor others
Habit 7 ½: Play!

Habit # 1 is the most difficult for me! Because I don't finish the things I start!! I begin to learn things with such enthusiasm and gradually loose interest. However, commitment to learn things in a class setting encourages me to have an "end" to my efforts.

Habit # 7 & 71/2 probably the easiest for me! Once I am confident in something I would like to share my knowledge/skills with others. I tend to learn more by teaching to others. Playing is always fun and I love to learn all the tricks and shortcuts!
