Assignment question:
WARRIOR [948]

The correct answers to these open questions are the following.

What have you learned about yourself?

That although I have many things to learn and improve in my life, I can develop new skills and abilities to enhance the quality of my life.

What stressors and or "hassles" do you recognize in your life?

I am not very patient. I want things so bad, right now, at my own pace. And now understand that is wrong. I stress a lot when I am not able to accomplish what I want.

What measures can you take in order to lower your stress and optimize your health and well-being?

I need to understand that everything in life comes at the right time and the right place. There is a time for every season. You can force things that are not about to happen now. If you do, you get more stress in your daily life.

How will this enable you to become a more productive student?

I have to focus on the task at hand. One day at a time. One activity at a time. I have to start something and finish it. Not the opposite, to start something new when I am not capable to correctly finish what I started.

Do you see a mind, body, soul connection?

I am in the process of integration. Not yet there, but I think I am going in the right direction.
