Reflection 

I learned from the Habit of Mind readings that to be successful we need to be persistent to achieve what we want to achieve. To keep trying till we succeed in what we are trying to do even after we have failed many times. With failure comes great success. In applying past knowledge to new situations it lets us have a better understanding of how harder we need to work to get things done. Also, past experiences can help us evaluate and know what really matters in the situation. We have a better process of things we want. With striving with accuracy it reminded me that we should not and I do not settle with just an okay. I always want the best. A strong reminder to not settle for less than what we want or deserve in all aspects of your life. An example of persistent to achieve in my personal life has to be how I persisted to finish college and get another degree. Now in my last semester her at Fullerton College it clearly shows me how persisting and striving not to settle for less and achieve a goal that seemed so far to achieve now is coming to a completion seems so surreal to me. On applying previous knowledge I helped myself not to make the mistakes I had done in the pass and aimed for hire than I have ever done in my life to achieve my dream goals. In striving for accuracy I have put in my personal life the strive to get not just what I want but more. Like when I thought I would just get a certificate here at Fullerton College now I and not only getting my certificate but also an AA in my major. I strived higher than I ever thought possible when I decided to go for this major.
