1) Tenaciousness is a competency. What are the behaviors that you have used (or developed) to keep up with the requirements of this course?
I do my Blog post assignments, for the most part, every Thursday evening around the same time. I value my school work and my grades. They are high priorities for me. I then check the blogs periodically over the weekend to comment on them.
2) Tenaciousness is also about attitude. Talk about a moment or two when you felt like "giving up." What pulled you through? Do you feel like you've developed a tenacious attitude during the past two months? What experience or experiences most contributed to this?
When I came up with my entrepreneurship idea for the cracked cell phone repair store, I kept thinking that this idea was dumb. I felt like switching my idea because I felt like nobody would utilize this concept. What pulled me through was that it could happen and the people that I interviewed were really interested. Yes, I believe that I have developed a tenacious attitude.
3) Three tips. What are three tips you would offer next semester's student about (1) fostering the skills that support tenacity and (2) developing the 'tenacious mindset' ?
1. Set goals for yourself and achieve them
2. Don't let adversity scare you
3. Self discipline will make you succeed in this course
1. Prioritize your grades and your future
2. Be realistic
3. Create a schedule
Hey Elizabeth, nice post. I liked your tips for being tenacious, especially tips 1 and 3. These tips seem actionable and clear. This is the best type of advice in my opinion. Additionally, these tips have helped me throughout this semester with achieving the grades that I have desired. I also liked your personal anecdote about your tenacity in the face of self-doubt. I too had a similar experience. Thanks for the post!
