Your first post should be on how you feel about the Seven and 1/2 Habits of Highly Successful Lifelong Learners from week 1; discuss what you feel will be the most difficult part for you and why?What's the Problem?
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 7.5: Play
What difficulties can there be in these habits except in the doing of them? Better then that we practice these habits, if not in full, because of some natural reluctance to exercise ourselves in new activities and attitudes regardless of their ultimate benefit to us, but at least in part, so that in smaller measures we might become accustomed to that which is for our own betterment and welfare, that in this way we might be later able to more fully engage what serves only to bring us greater happiness and prosperity. Let us then please a stubborn Human Nature and take only in short measures what is good for us. And, should we actually wish to succeed in our efforts, let us also remind ourselves to take these small measures on a regular basis lest we forget and promote our wellbeing only on occasions so few that we find the habits more like perpetual strangers rather than acquaintances with whom we seek to establish a deepening of friendship, trust, and companionship.
