Psyc1300 Portfolio project

1. Emily Brooks (RN/BSN)
I am a strong, joyous, headstrong woman pursuing my dreams and goals.

2. Three of my favorite assignments or
discussions
 My first discussion would have to be the discussion for Module 7. We apparently
create our own stress and can work toward cutting it out. The discussion gave me
pointers on how not to stress out as much as I normally do.
 My second assignment would have to be the community service. I enjoy helping
people and doing the right thing. The assignment made me realize that there is so
much I can do for my community that I do not even know about. It made me want
to volunteer in my community more.
 My third was the Grayson Link assignment. It confirmed my feelings towards
pursuing nursing. I believe it strengthened my will to go do what I believed I
wanted to do. The assignment put into perspective that I was meant for the nursing
field in a way.

3. Three of my favorite journals
 The first assignment I want to start off with is the Chapter 3 journal entry 11. The
assignment made me look more eagerly toward the future due to the fact that it made
me visualize the future. Me writing about the first day on the job really set my whole
dream into motion. It puts everything into perspective and helps me stay on task.
 The second one is the chapter 2 journal entry. The inner guide and critic really put into
view on how I can avoid situations such as being late for work. It made me want to work
harder to put simple stuff like that behind me. It has helped me by deciding as to what I
could have helped or prevented.
 The third one is chapter 5 journal entry 17. The assignment made me think of people
that could potentially help me. It made me think and realize that there are people I can
reach out to for help when I struggle. It helped me come to my senses and quit thinking
I can do everything myself.

4. Which week I liked best?
 I really enjoyed the week with the chapter 3 journal entry 11. I guess that would be
weeks 5 and 6. It made me think of the future and how I would feel on the first day
of my job. It gave me something to look forward to in the future and gave me that
extra push I needed to get me started and motivated for the future.

5. Which three lessons will I carry on into
next semester?
 How to properly study
 My list of goals I made for myself
 My visualization of my first day of my career

7. Information from Grayson Link or
Typefocus
 The Grayson link told me that I was pretty much in the correct field. It told me that
Nursing was one of my top career choices. My Holland code was SI, which meant I
was social and investigative, which would be good for the field I want to go in.

8. Best Life
I would love to be in the nursing field
living somewhere in the country with a
family to call my own.
