Thing #1

The 7 1/2 Habits tutorial was very interesting to me.  The one I find the hardest to do is Habit 3, viewing problems as challenges.  It is hard to stay positive and in good cheer when human nature is telling you to get frustrated.  It is even more complicated to take that problem and view it as a challenge, an opportunity to grow.  Nevertheless, when we do accept the problem as a challenge, we learn much more from it.  Habit 1 is the easiest for me to do.  Even though something may be hard and stressful now, if we keep the big picture in mind it will be much easier for us to get through it.  When I first set up my blog, I was worried I would never understand this new blogging experience, but now that I have had time to play around on it, it is not nearly as hard as it initially seemed.  I do not know much at all about Web 2.0 tools, except what I learned about them in setting up my blog.  Once I get more comfortable using the Web 2.0 tools, I look forward to seeing what all they can do.
