71/2 Habits of lifelong learning

After watching this video on the lifelong learning habits, I feel that the habit I find easiest is #2: accept responsibility for your own learning. As a college student, it is my responsibility to show up for class and pay attention. Only I know what I do and do not understand. Therefore, it becomes my responsibility to ensure that I learn all that I need to. If there is something that I don't understand, then I need to find a way to understand that particular material. Whether it be asking a fellow student for help, referring to the textbook or going up and asking the professor to explain.

I think the habit I struggle with the most, would probably be to begin with the end in mind. Having various projects going on at the same time for several different classes becomes a juggling act. When I first begin a project, I have a set idea of what I would like done with it. Unfortunately, due to other projects going on at the same time, the end goal is not what I may of originally set out for it to be. I may of had to change it because there simply wasn't enough time to accomplish what I wanted originally or perhaps the research took me in a different direction.
