7 1/2 habits

Begin with the end in mind - Easiest, because I like to think out things and envision how the results will be

Accept responsibility for your own learning-I'm pretty good at this because I have strong self-discipline

View problems as challenges-I look at things optimistically most times, so I enjoy this step

Have confidence in yourself as a competent, effective learner-Usually I am good at this. When it comes to learning a second language, though, it has been hard for me to have confidence

Create your own learning toolbox-I am pretty good about using the tools that fit with what I'm doing

Use technology to your advantage-I usually use technology to my advantage, but I try not to use it just for technology's sake

Teach/mentor others-I enjoy teaching others and mentoring children, so this comes natural

Play!-Sometimes it is hard for me to play when I'm trying to get something accomplished. Play time seems like a waste of time to me.
