I will start by saying Monday to Friday is basically the same daily routine. My day usually starts at 6:00 am. After getting up from bed I usually have a cup of coffee and skip breakfast because I am always getting late for work. I start working at 8:00 am and finishes at 4:30 pm, unless I am doing overtime, I will go up to 8:30 pm. My day at work goes out quickly, this is so because at least 40% or about 3.5 hours are used up in driving to various jobs/locations in NY, also I performed my job with exuberance because I keep people warm in the comfort of their home in the winter and cool in the summer. Yes, I am a Heating Ventilation and Air Conditioning service technician. I set myself a goal every day and that is to read at least 20 pages of a book. I am currently reading HOW TO WIN FRIENDS AND INFLUENCE PEOPLE BY DALE CARNEGIE, so far, I can say I am being enlighten by this book.

Weekends I tried to get all of errands finish by Saturday, so I will have the remaining time to do whatever makes me happy (: mostly spending time with my daughter and watch a few good movies.

Discipline. English is not one of my strong areas, but I believe by being Discipline in getting all my assignments and homework completed on time is the right approach to this course. Winter vacation was a blessing. I spent most of it with my family. My main worry with online schooling is that I am not getting the exposure and interaction with peers and professor as I like, which I feel is hindering my full learning capacity.  I do see this course as important to both my personal and professional life therefore will try to be discipline enough to complete all tasks and learn as much from it.

To my professor, I am excited to learn from you and to my fellow peers it’s my pleasure being in the course with you.

I choose this, a list of CEOS and their net worth in billions as a reminder that they all have one thing is common, “Self-Discipline”
