Being that my dream is to become a Counseling Psychologist, this course will allow me to better my understanding on the way others behave individually. I’m eager to learn the different techniques and factors that influence our liking for other individuals. I intend to study at least 2 hours a day to ensure I have the proper knowledge to excel my test and quizzes.
I chose this picture because this course is based on learning about individuals behaviors, and I found this meme pretty humorous.

I am the type of student that likes to be organized and stay on top of my assignments. I like to get things done early when I can in order to give myself some time off or more time for assignments that require more attention. I believe I am an average student who is trying to do their best at the tasks at hand. My confidence levels have never been very high. I do notice that I have more confidence when I know more about a topic that we are discussing because it’s easier for me to make connections with the extra and new information. When it comes to having trouble with other assignments, I know my confidence levels drop. My anxiety takes over and I get very overwhelmed. I am trying to train myself not to get worked up over assignments, but sometimes that requires me reaching out to others for help. I do not like asking for help, but if I can’t figure something out then I try to see if someone can guide me in the right direction. With scores ranging from 10 to 40, my results are as followed:
Total- 27
Mean- 2.7
These results tell me that I do have confidence in getting things done, but sometimes I need a little help and need to work on building up my confidence.
This quote from Will Smith reminds me to stay positive and be confident in my abilities.
