What was Easy for me about this project? The easy part was making the presentation, making the presentation was very easy once I finished reading the book. What difficulties did I encounter? The difficulty I encountered on this project was reading the book as I do not like to read and it is hard to find time to spare to read. I overcame my difficulty by setting aside a small part of my afternoon to read the book. What surprised me was how many people died and how graphic my book was, it made the book more interesting and easier to follow along.

Core Competency Reflection

When I need to boost my mood or re-focus I usually grab some water and take a five minute break then come back with a fresh mindset. By doing this it helps me focus and get my work done, but if I do the five minute break on my phone I could get easily distracted and 5 minutes can turn into 30 so I don’t go on my phone in during the break.

To celebrate a accomplishment such as finishing about half my project I take a 5-10 minute break and get some food or a drink. By taking this break it gives my brain a minute to cool down and can give me a fresh mindset for the second half of the project.

In discussions and conversations, I help to build and extend understanding by asking questions when I am confused or not certain on a part.
