Thing # 1

I found The tutorial to be very interesting.  I  thought there were good points made about being lifelong learners.  You never really know how much you actually learn until you think about.  I'm sure the old saying that "you learn something new everday" stands true, and this tutorial helped me to see that.  The habit that I found to be the easiest was to begin with the end in mind.  It is easy for me to have a goal and see myself doing it.  For example, I would love to learn to play the guitar.  I can see myself in the future playing my favorite songs, but then we get to the hard part: getting myself to that point.  The habit of accepting responsibility for my own learning seems to be the hardest thing for me.  Pushing myself to go out, get the guitar, and get lessons is something that I have yet to do, but wish I would.

  1. I have a hard time following through with my learning goals sometimes also. There are a lot things that I would love to do, but either get distracted or lose motivation.

  2. Having the end in mind is very important. It keeps your head where it needs to be!
