thoughts on life long learning habits

OK, so this is my very first blog--be nice. =)

For me, I think the easiest habit is #3-- view problems as challenges. I tend to do that with any problem that presents itself. I'm the type of learner that thrives on challenges and working under pressure. I was the type of student that would begin an 20 page paper 2 days before it was due and still get an A. So habit #3 comes naturally to me.

I suppose the hardest habit for me is habit #1-begin with an end in mind. Part of why I thrive under challenges is because I have a hard time visualizing goals with an end. I tend to focus on what I'm doing right at this very minute and some abstract goal in the near or distant future means nothing to me.
