ct exercise 7

I made the discovery that I have a lot of skills that involve creativity and thinking on the spot. I can make alterations to designs or instructions fairly quickly when I need to. I can alter my thinking to simplify a task and make alterations to directions to make things fit. As in with sewing or cooking, I can alter a pattern to work with different fabrics or alter a recipe and cooking times to work with different ingredients still following the basic design. This can work well in the work environment because it means I can problem solve pretty well.

journal entry 18

my excuses for not studying are usually along the lines of
I'm tired, I can't focus, I'm frustrated, I have other things to do, I know the material well enough, the material isn't interesting to me
I discovered that all of my excuses are basic, simple and come down to "just do it!"
I have other things to do is my biggest excuse. I need to make time to study.
