2. Favorite three lessons
How to Get the Most Out of Studying
After learning about the better ways of
studying, it was nice to see just how
effective these methods were. I noticed
an immediate improvement on test
scores in my classes. I wish I could’ve
watched this video series back when I
was in high school.
How the brain learns
Knowing how the brain learns is
essential to for me to make the
most out of my brain. Knowing
the ways to keep my brain
healthy are imperative to my
success. Having a healthy mind
will lead to better decisions and
a healthier body.
Letter to next class
Being able to write that letter let
me be honest about myself.
Realizing my weakness and
being able to share it to people
who may have the same trouble
I will makes me feel good. I’m
hoping my letter brings them
some good.

3. Three Favorite Journals
Chapter 2 Journal Entry
Taking the moment to listen to the
inner critic, inner defender, and
inner guide helped me to learn what
I’m feeling about something that
happened to me. The inner guide is
one that I will try to listen to more
often. This journal also helped me
to be more aware of when my inner
critic and defender try to convince
me of things that are not true.
Chapter 3 Journal Entry
Visualizing the dream of most
importance was something that
I should’ve been doing back in
high school. This journal was a
great reminder of why we as
humans live and try to prosper.
It’s always important to keep
your goals in sight and strive to
accomplish them.
Chapter 6 Journal Entry
Having my inner guide help me
revise my self-destructing scripts
was insightful for me. Being able
to take a look at what I thought was
right and take measures to correct
them helped me through this
semester at Grayson. One of the
things that I liked was that this
journal was treated like a
conversation you would have with
a friend.

4. My Favorite Week This Semester
My favorite week this semester was week 15(this week) because while making this power point I
got to take a look at all of what I’ve done this semester. This class has brought me lessons that I
wish I had learned while I was in high school. After all the discussions and journals I’ve done and
how they’ve changed my outlook on decision making, it feels good to reminisce about how far
I’ve come.

5. Three Lessons learned
Three lessons that I will carry on with me throughout the semesters are good studying habits, inner
guide, and goal setting.
Good studying habits: I will carry on throughout college and my future occupation.
My inner guide: I will have talks with frequently to make sure I’m making the right move.
Goal setting: I will make sure I make attainable goals to keep pushing for and be successful.

7. Self Assessment Scores Part II
Some of the most important discoveries that I’ve made while having this journal is how I need so
much more improvement to myself as a student and a person than I previously would admit to
myself. All the lessons I’ve been taught this semester by this class have been eye opening for me.
Learning how to use my inner guide and critic to make decisions.

8. My TypeFocus
My TypeFocus told me that I am a RCES: Realistic, Conventional, Enterprising, and Social which
I do agree with. I learned that engineers use Ideas and Logic, use rules to solve problem, and
make general rules or come up with answers from lots of detailed information. They also have to
have good Hand and Finger Use, put together small parts with your fingers, and keep your arm or
hand steady. I learned that Electricians Plan layout and installation of electrical wiring,
equipment, or fixtures, based on job specifications and local codes.

9. My Best Life
My Best life would consist of me being able to live in a nice
affordable house near a suburb able to house a modest family.
I would have a German shepherd as my pet and my car would
be an Audi R8. I would want my friends to live near me and
have my church be close by. I would want to a role model to
my kids and give them the best environment to grow up in
