Homework? Why!?
There is now torture as exquisite as continuing education. - Marie Martin
So, my college classes started on the 26, which at this point was two days ago. It’s so funny because I made sure I had all my books and I have been excited to go back to college. However, I logged in to my online math class and found I have such a resistance doing school again that my mind entered fight or flight. I am having to approach my math class like it is a toxic person. By psyching myself up and dashing in then out.
It’s interesting to me because I have been so excited about going back to school and pursuing my lifelong dream of getting a master’s degree in psychology. Which all starts with one class, then one more, like baby steps. I am finding however that math is something I am resistant to. So here we go trying to find ways of working through my resistant’s, so I can move forward and get the best grade I can.
The kind of math I am doing is something I struggled with when I was in high school back in 2002. I thought I was done doing Algebra of any kind, but I have found my way back to those dreaded problems in my new class called Business Math.
In all honesty, I feel that I have learned a lot about life and mindset since my high school days. I believe these minds set tools will help me to complete my dreaded math class. We will see! Time management is going to be something I struggle with. I normally try to commit my whole self to anything I take on, however on the 9th of next month I need to start getting ready for my reflexology classes. My Reflexology Classes are the trade school I talk about in the little blurb at the top of my blog page.
I am going to the Center of the Healing Arts. It is about 2 hours away from where I live. The center is located in Sterling Heights, MI. Fortunately for me I have a friend who I can stay with on the days that I will have class, so I don’t have to rent a hotel room or drive the 2 hours one way to the school.
There is the feeling that I may have bitten off more than I can chew sort of speak. But what are you going to do? For me it is a need to get my schooling right this time, well I still feel motivated in life to try! Anyways I will update how I am doing with getting my head wrapped around doing my math soon.
As always stay classy!
