My First Blog, so be Gentle

Hey or How-Do,

My name is Bill and I work at ImaginOn as a Children's Librarian. Of the seven and a-half Habits of Successful Lifelong Learners, I would have to say the easiest for me is Accepting Responsibility for your own Learning. For the past 5 years I have either been in school or working here at the ImaginOn. It has been wonderful for me because I have taken responsibility for my succeeding or failure. Fortunately most of that has been in the succeeding category. The hardest one for me has been Having Confidence in Yourself as a Competent, Effective Learner. I sometimes doubt my abilities and skills and that in general is a bad thing. However in a twisted sort of way this pushes me on to strive even harder to master things I come across; which I usually do. Well I need to get back to work so "Good Night and Good Luck"
