That was for Week 2, Thing 3. And it's now the end of Week 3 :)
I have wonderful intentions, but often they get lost in the rush and the immediacy of all the daily happings in my life. I've come to realize, though, that I am still capable of learning, and at a pace that compliments, or at least isn't directly at odds with, my life. One of the best parts of working here for me, is that I am swimming in an entire river of new thoughts, ideas, technologies, etc. all day. Whether I choose to soak up any of the knowledge that is available, is up to me.
Which leads me to one of the Habits that I have no trouble with: accepting responsibility for my own learning process. I learned to see myself as a lifelong "student" a very long time ago, following in my father's footsteps. He made it his mission to &lt;em&gt;never&lt;/em&gt; stop learning, and I'm so thankful for his positive attitude :)&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3208245233398484766-6889499876502446780?l=23special.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://23special.blogspot.com/feeds/6889499876502446780/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3208245233398484766&amp;postID=6889499876502446780' title='4 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3208245233398484766/posts/default/6889499876502446780'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3208245233398484766/posts/default/6889499876502446780'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://23special.blogspot.com/2007/06/lagging-behind-again.html' title='Lagging Behind Again :)'/><author><name>Amygirl</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>4</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3208245233398484766.post-4607589297526978208</id><published>2007-06-14T11:06:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2007-06-14T12:34:07.383-05:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>Well, here we are at last...
