Comparing the Discovery Wheel in this chapter with the Discovery Wheel in the earlier chapter, I discovered that I had improved in most assessment areas although there were a few sections where I either stagnated or dropped in relation to total points. For instance, my attitude score had improved from 24 in the earlier chapter to 30 in this chapter. My time score of 35 had remained the same in the earlier chapter and in this chapter. My memory score had improved from 25 in the earlier chapter to 30 in this chapter. My reading score had improved from 30 in the earlier chapter to 32 in this chapter. My notes score had improved from 26 in the earlier chapter to 31 in this chapter. My tests score had improved from 28 in the earlier chapter to 33 in this chapter. My tests score had improved from 28 in the earlier chapter to 33 in this chapter. My thinking score had improved from 30 in the earlier chapter to 32 in this chapter. My communicating score of 35 had remained the same in the earlier chapter and in this chapter. My money score had reduced from 30 in the earlier chapter to 27 in this chapter. My purpose score had improved from 24 in the earlier chapter to 30 in this chapter. In the next six months, I intend to review the following articles from this book for additional suggestions I could use: “Money for the future” in Chapter 9; “Making the transition to higher education” and “Making time for school as an adult learner” in Chapter 2; “Communicating with instructors” in Chapter 8; “Music reading at work” in Chapter 4; and “Six kinds of thinking” in Chapter 7 (Ellis).
Discovery/Intention Statement
Discovery
In reflecting on my experience with this course, I discovered that my biggest gain was attitude and purpose. The most useful thing I learned was note-taking. The smartest decision I made was improving my memory skills. The biggest risk I took was setting a strict budget for myself even when I knew that I am generally a spendthrift and would probably run out of money. The biggest compliment that I received was a letter from a friend acknowledging my influence in their life. The biggest compliment that I gave was writing a letter to my friend to appreciate their support and influence in my life since childhood. If I could repeat this course, the most important thing I would do differently is improve my time management skills.
Intention
After reviewing my Discovery Statements, the goal that I would be most excited to achieve this year is improving my time management ...
