2. SHELBY NEAL
Registered Nursing
• I am a determined, honest, loving woman.

3. 3 Favorite Assignments
• Power of Words.
This was our very first assignment and probably my favorite. We all need a
reminder sometimes that everything you say has an impact. It reminded me how
meaningful saying something nice to som can be.
• How People Learn.
I thought it was interesting to see what my learning style was. I also enjoyed
reading about all the different styles there were. It helped me realize which
learning ways will be most effective for me.
• Memory and Information
I learned there are different types of memory. Working memory is considered
“short-term”. “long-term” memory holds information forever.

4. 3 Favorite Journals
• Journal Entry 5
I liked this because it reminded me that I’m responsible for my life and my
choices. It helped me better understand taking personal responsibility.
• Journal Entry 23
I am my own coach! I enjoyed doing the script with myself and the inner
guide. It greatly enhanced my self-awareness
• Journal Entry 11
It was so nice to picture the day I finish school. Writing about it made it
seem like it was no so far fetched. It gave me a glimpse of how great of a
feeling that would be.

5. What was my favorite week?
• Week one was my favorite. I loved the power of words assignment. I
like to be reminded of the little yet important things in life. I also like
to be reminded that I have the power to change someone’s day for
the better.

• I learned a lot about myself in
this course. I have more self-
motivation. I manage my time
better, although I think I may
always have room for
improvement in that
department. I adopted lifelong
learning skills.

8. • If I accomplish all of my life goals
according to plan, I would be so
thankful. I want to have a career
taking care of sick people who
are at their worst and try to
bring a little light to their life. I
want to share this life with my
husband and my two children. I
do not want to be rich or
famous. Just happy.
