Memory is not as good as it used to be so good note taking is a good advantage to this.

The first habit Sean Convey lists of the seven is “Be Proactive.” This habit made an impact on me because it sends a message that I try to take into account everyday, but haven’t one-hundred percent fulfilled. The habit, “Be Proactive” is important because it says that you are in full control of your life, your decisions and your attitude. A quote that Convey adds to support this message is, “You can not control what happens to you, but you can control how you react.” You choose everyday to be proactive or reactive. Reactive people act solely on impulse, whereas proactive people think before they act, make decisions based on their values, and always find a way to move forward. Habit #1 is important because it teaches readers to take initiative, be proactive rather than reactive, and to not let others

Booker T. Washington’s approach to fighting for equality was not the approach that the post-reconstruction era needed. Of course, his fight for equality was not a fight at all, but a compliance to southern whites in exchange for the rights he saw most important.

His main point: “Cast down your buckets where you are!”(American Public Media) was a comfort for the white southern conservative audience. Washington preached that black Americans have to settle and receive only some of their God-given rights.

This recommendation came in to my mind after reading the second habit: Begin With the End in Mind. This habit taught me how to live with a purpose. It is based on the principle that things need to be created mentally before they are physically created. For example, a plane is first created in someone’s mind before it is actually built. Effective people determine their own futures. First, they mentally plan it according to their values and principles. Second, they physically create it through their positive actions and behaviors. During my college life, I have always had busy weeks in which I had to deal with lots of exams, home woks, quizzes, and projects.

Personally, I like to get my work done right away so I can stray to procrastinate. I also like to write everything out, making it easier for me to remember. I may need to alter the way I learn and adapt to college curriculum, such as planning my time in a more efficient way. Not to over whelm my self by trying to complete my work all at once, and remember to just live sometimes. To take school seriously, but to also enjoy my time is what I want to focus
