The 7 1/2 habits of lifelong learning..........seems like there should be more of these habits, but then I would have an even harder time in determining which are easiest and hardest for me. Probably the easiest is accepting responsibility for my own learning. If I'm not going to be responsible for what I learn, who is? I've always liked to work independently and without a lot of supervision, so my learning curve is ususally "if at first you don't succeed--try again". Having a definite end in mind is also easy for me. I tend to plot out assignments with each step leading to the goal.

Now for the hard ones. Viewing problems as "challenges" is a nice idea but sometimes a problem is really A PROBLEM. Teaching and mentoring is not always my strong suit either, but I do my best & usually I can muddle my way through. PLAY is also not always easy for me. Apparently, the puritan work ethic is alive and well with me.
