Habbits of mind

Of the 16 habits of mind mentioned in the article sadly i only have managed to apply three to my life successfully. The three are Thinking independently, applying past knowledge to new situations and striving for accuracy. The three of 16 habits in which i need to apply to my life are consistency,listening with understanding and empathy, and responding with awe.

Thinking Independently
Thinking independently is one of many skills i am good at. When it comes to thinking up creative ways to life i am an expert. My thinking skills are above and beyond Albert Einsteins, although i do not consider myself a Guinness. I love thinking things up and applying them to the way i see life. My thinking capacity gives me a various perspective to life. My thinking skills lets me see the world in colors as suppose to others who view the world in one dimension of black and white.

Applying past knowledge to new situations

My grandmother once told me the past is the future. Whatever i am told i listen to carefully and take notes on because you never know when it might come in handy later on in life. especially the words of your elders, every word of wisdom is nourishing for the soul. Knowing that my elder has experienced life's struggles far beyond my capacity i listen to their story and hold on to their every words as if my life alone depends on it. There has been a few times where i have had to bring up past memories of events and stories to help me out of a few sticky situations.

Striving for Accuracy

striving for accuracy is one of my strongest habits of mind. One thing about me is that i am the kind of person that never gives up, i strive for the best and nothing but the best. If i think my best is not going to be enough i struggle until perfection. I m a little girl with a big heart and a little mind. I strive for precision and accuracy in my daily day to day life.

Consistency

W.O.W this is my weakest of the 16 habits of mind. I am either on or I'm late. I am usually more late than on time to turn in my homework assignments. The problem is not that i don't do them, i am just to lazy to put the efforts in it to See it to the end. My inconsistency has made my grades suffer, i am not usually the kind of person to get of track but i have just been slacking due to personal problems. I need to get back on track or suffer the consequences later which I'm not sure i want to do.

Listening with understanding and empathy

This might be worse than the other one. As we all know nobody on this earth is perfect except god. Well this includes several not one of my imperfections. I have this terrible habits of pretending I'm listening t people when they are putting their time and effort into something, literally pouring their heats out to me but the reality of it is that I'm either asleep or worried about my own problems. i have these selfish thought about why i should listen to your problems and help you find solutions when i got my own prole ms that are pro bally worse than yours to work on.Selfishness is also ma contribution to this habit.

this also falls in with responding with wonder and awe

I may give you the impression that I'm impressed or into what your saying but trust me i am not I'm in another world. It's only a false sense of wonderment and awe that says in other words this is taking to long get to the point so i could leave.
