Despite being a teacher you sometimes forget the "7 and a half habits" or however they're described...they exist in many guises, I'm sure!!!
For me...it has to be number 4....yes...have confidence in yourself as a competent effective learner. I have moments of joy (?) when I discover I have "learned" something....at other times I find it hard to put pen to paper :-(

I'm sure there must be all sorts of smileys and things in here but I haven't found them yet!!!

But here are the "habits"
