This document contains a student's reflections on various journal entries and assignments from their general studies course. It discusses lessons learned about self-learning, time management, obstacles, and goals. The student's career interest assessment results matched with mental health counseling, a career they did not initially consider but makes sense given their preference for harmony and creative freedom. Their highest career interest was found to be investigative work involving ideas.
2. Self Learning assignment
While volunteering I've learned that I can still learn new
skills. It can look good on a resume or a scholarship. I can
also make a difference in other people life's.
Self-Assessment Assignment
This assignment was about being a successful student. By
doing this assignment I figured out that I need to work on
the qualities that are already strong and improve them
even more. I also need to believe and motivate myself.
Type Focus Assignment
In this assignment I learned my two goals in school was to
get better at math, and to pass all my classes with A’s. I
also leaned I’m a visual/hands on learner. It also helped
give me ideas on what I want to do when I'm older, like an
art teacher.
3. Chapter 3 Journal Entry 10
This journal was meaningful to me because its about a future goal. My
future goal is to move out of my moms house and to have a place of
my own. I want to learn how to take care of myself and be more
responsible.
Chapter 4 Journal Entry 12
This journal is meaningful to me because its about time management.
I never realized how bad I was at time management before this. I now
know that I need to get better at managing my time between friends,
school, and work
Chapter 5 Journal Entry 16
This journal was meaningful to me because I realized my inner and
outer obstacles. My challenge in college at the moment is Math. I also
need to use my resources at the college instead of struggling.
4. • My favorite week was probably week one. My
favorite quote on the week one power point,
was “The choices we make at each fork in the
road will ultimately determine our level of
success.” This quote kind of reminds me of my
personal affirmation. Why? Because if you
don’t like the hand that has been dealt to you,
you have the choice to make a difference in
your hand.
5. The three lessons ill take with me through out
college is understanding the expecations of
higher education, becoming an active learner,
adopting life-long learning.

7. • INFPs hold harmony and friendship close to their
hearts. In their own quiet way, they want their
work, friends and school to reflect these values.
• They work best when they have the freedom to
creatively. They types of careers that honor these
traits include fine arts, counselling, teaching,
writing.
• Mental Health Counseling was a match on my
assessment, I wouldve never guess that wouldve
been a a match.
• My highest score was investigative, frequently
working with ideas.
