1) Tenaciousness is a competency.
The behaviors that I use to keep up with the requirements of this course is just reminding myself that this is only for 16 weeks and that I need to just take it week by week. I've also noticed that I would schedule time to brainstorm ideas for how to tackle upcoming assignments.
2) Tenaciousness is an attitude.
I've honestly never felt like giving up in this course. The only thing that sort of gets to me is the willpower or drive to complete the assignments. What sort of pulled me through many of the times I thought about not submitting an assignment was thinking back about my grandpa who would say to always finish a job that you've started. So, I started this class and I plan on finishing it. I don't feel like I acquired a strong tenacious yet in this course; however, in the future, I can see it developing into something. One of the experiences that kind of contributed to this was the elevator pitch because I really don't like recording myself and listening to my recorded voice, but I had to do it anyways.

Austin,
ReplyDeleteI like how your post is simple and to the point, without losing impact. One could easily ramble on about these questions, but you made very strong points in an easy-to-read format. If you don't mind, I think I'm going to take your grandpa's advice, too. Let's all push each other to do great things in this class. Through the cupcake controversy and the endless wave of assignments, we will prevail.
