Recap of Spring Semester 2018

During the Spring semester I have gained so much knowledge. This being my first semester in college I can say I have made many mistakes that will help me better my future later. I have depended on my professor for answers that I needed to do further research on I also have blamed my professors of the outcome of my work. Which I have learned from my EDUC 1300 class that successful college students take on the responsibility and own up to their mistakes, outcome, and experiences that they may have during the years of college. In Basic Reading I learned to write down and verbally define the proper definitions to the vocabulary words that I knew but I didn’t know the proper definition. I now how to manage my time in class and out of class. Instead of doing what is not important I now put school first over working and hanging out. Before entering college, I had this thing of wanting to change out before getting what I needed to get done which was my school work. I know plan out how my work is going to get done and how I am going to be able to study and still recall the material that my professor brought forth in the recent classes. My major requires a lot of time and reading. The practice I am doing now will one day pay off when transferring to a university. Taking Basic Reading has also brought out my creative side. I used to find It hard to write blogs and tell stories about myself. Now it seems natural to open word or blogger and tell my classmates about things we are discussing in class or whatever the case may be. Before this semester I my weakness was emotional intelligence which I found out about in EDUC 1300 I let my emotions get the best of me. If I felt like I didn’t like something I wouldn’t put my all into it. And that can sometimes hinder your goals that you have set to reach one day in life. I also struggled with believing in myself and seeing myself as capable, loveable, and unconditionally worthy human being. My success coach has brought me out of that by pushing me to do my best even when I feel as if my work ethic is not good enough. With that I discovered self-motivation finding a purpose in my life by pursuing meaningful. I now have a growth mindset the more I use my brain the smarter and capable it becomes. I discipline myself if I have a goal or plan to go by for school and I don’t reach it. From now on I promised myself that I will stay committed and focus so that I have a good outcome once gradationing from college. Ii will always remember that no matter what accomplishments I make in life in college or in my career years on down that somebody helped me get there and it started spring semester 2018.
