What goals will accelerate your path to success as you define it? My goals to keep successful is to keep learning, have a positive attitude and to help others.
5 year plan- What steps can you take today to ensure that your decisions align with the five-year plan you’ve set? To always stay ahead. But my general 5 year plan is to have a stable job, good home and knowing that I can keep rising above building my success.
Social contracts- In what ways are you memorializing your journey to show the steps you have taken to strengthen your character, to become a person of value and moving closer to the person you want to become? I am doing this course to document my journey showing how I am advancing so I can show others my progress. Also I will be able to show others how far I have advanced on my mission to become successful and to show my change from my past.
Strength in Crisis- Drawing on Epictetus insight and my own experiences, I challenge you to think about your own life : what steps can you take today to focus on what you can control and build a ladder out of your struggles? I can control the direction I want to go. Do I want to be homeless or just average or above average, that is my choice. I have always wanted to be above average and to be able to control my life and the direction I want to go. My ladder has started small again like I was just out of high school and now I am building my ladder to be bigger and taller with the advancements I have made and working on.
Creating Meaning- How can you use the principles of choice, responsibility and purpose to transform a current struggle into an opportunity for growth? Unfortunately I made the bad choice which led me to prison. I took responsibility of my actions and then I told myself I don’t want to keep in this direction so I changed. I used this choice and the place I am in to build on myself working to show others I have changed and the old me is gone. I want to use this to show my growth and matured.
What tools or habits can you implement to stay focused and move toward your goals? My habit I want is to show my drive and motivation that I have developed for myself. I don’t want to be in this place ever again so I am wanting help others also.
