The easiest habit for me to follow is that every obstacle is a learning opportunity. Unless I'm overly tired, which lead me to become frustrated easily, I enjoy working through problems and see them as an opportunity to improve myself.
Of the 7 1/2 Habits, the most difficult for me is to begin with the end in mind. While this works for me sometimes, for example when I'm taking a class and my goal is to complete it, usually I prefer a more organic approach to learning. I like the distraction that I experience as I work online: check
, browse
, or order something from
. For me, it's all connected and moves me along the path of learning about the Web. For example, I was watching Morning Joe
this morning while I worked on a class. Everyone on t.v. was talking about
. So, I went to Twitter and joined. I have no idea what to do with it, yet, but playing around with it is taking me somewhere. If I were focused more acutely on my learning goals, I would have worked on my class and missed a learning opportunity (plus a lunch invitation)
. All of that said, the Learning Contract isn't for me.
