Despite how much I have managed and developed my skills throughout the duration of the course, there are still many in which I need to learn and or further develop as I look to go into my next year of university. For me my biggest skill developed/improved is my time management. Changing my approach on my timing/planning showed an improvement in my works quality as well as my personal satisfaction. I want to continue taking this forward into the next year and balance my time around a part time job, as well as my sporting commitments and social life. The work load in my next year will increase significantly as well as having exams in which I will need to allocate and balance my time around in order to achieve my goal of getting the best possible grade in my degree to help e get the job I want in such a competitive time. Anther skill I need to further improve on is my management of change. Specifically, how I get past the restraining forces hindering my goals. One of my floors is I make good intention but struggle/fail to follow through with them. This is because my attitude towards education was often minimal and negative. However, coming to university has changed my outlook and attitude towards learning and the changes I need to overcome are the old habits and ways that will only deter me from achieving the best not only in university but life afterwards. This also relates to how I manage conflict as I understand that I will have to do things that I am not comfortable or happy with but need to adapt my personality/beliefs at times I for the benefit of myself. These are just a couple of the skills I want to improve on as well as learn others to enhance my person in and out of university.
