Things I already do

From the chapter I read I already do most of those things. There were a few that stood out to me though. One being persisting, I can never leave anything undone. The other was thinking flexibly, I always look at things from different points of view. Striving for accuracy definitly caught my attention too. I hate for something to be half way done or not have all my effort put into it.
I chose persisting because like I already stated I don't feel comfortable leaving things undone. If I have to do something it's my task and it should be completed. It could be from washing dishes or having to do a research paper. If I start something today I have this urge in me that I want to finish it all today. Another example, doing this assignment. I could finish half today and come back tomorrow and finish. That's just not the person I am though. It has to be all done today or I will feel as though nothing has been accomplished.

Thinking flexibly is another HOB that I'm already used too. Most people should of chose this one too. As for me, I have many different point of views on many things. The reason for that is beacuse my opinion is not the only one that counts in alot of things. I learned to listen and try to see what other people see sometimes so I can see where they are coming form. Even if I don't agree with them, I don't have too if I don't want too, but thinking flexibly is all about having an open mind. We need that in the real world beacuse it's not all about us.

My last HOB, was striving for accuracy. I have always been like that from as long as I can remember. I like my things to be thought out and I want that to show through my work. I don't for any of my work to be half done. For example at my job, I am a cashier. At the end of my shift our tills and our registers have to be cleaned down. Alot of my co-workers don't do it. I don't feel comfortable leaving if it's not done. This kind of falls under the persisting HOB also.

I think those three HOB, fit me perfectly. I can even start to compare them to one another. I'm glad I picked up these habits early, because they really helped me mature alot faster. These habits help me with the future and and all the decisions I will make in it.
