Thing #2

After watching the 7 1/2 habits, I believe that the easiest habit for me is habit #1 begin with your end in mind. My background in coaching really helps me with this aspect, because when you plan out practices and lessons you know what your goal is for that day, week, game, season, etc. Just like when you are teaching and writing lesson plans. You always have your goal in mind and create your lessons with that goal in mind. The hardest for me is habit #3 view problems as challenges. That is easy to say, but when you are overwhelmed and a challenge occurs it can be difficult to step back and view it differently.
Overall the tutorial did bring up a good point about lifelong learners. I think attitude is the biggest thing that can affect a lifelong learner. I personally believe your attitude is the biggest thing that can set you up for success or failure. We all have chores and certain jobs that we don't necessarily want to do, but we need to do. It's the attitude you take when completing things that you don't want to do. Lifelong learners need to keep a positive attitude to remain successful in their learning.
