Learning Challenge:Review your schedule for this class

Looking at the schedule that I had planned for myself at the start of the semester, I definitely haven't managed to stick to it. I think my time management has improved because of the weekly scheduled blogs but I still find it a little bit hard to fully stick to what I had planned just because of all my other modules having big assignments or my part time job taking up way more time than I had anticipated. I think there is a lot more work I can do to try and stick to schedules and manage my time better but I'm am happy I've made some improvements. Maybe I should try to be stricter with myself when I make plans not to let them pass me by!

Learning Challenge:Watch For Empathy

A person that I observed showing empathy was my boss in my job. I work in a pizza and pasta takeaway in Coolock and its a small business. A homeless man came in over the weekend and was asking to charge his vape and if we had any spare food for him. My boss had already been  slightly pissed of at this homeless man because he had come up to the shop a previous day and had emptied all the rubbish from the bin onto the ground in front of our door and left it all there. My boss showed empathy by charging his vape and cooking him whatever dish he wanted and giving him free drinks to bring with him. The man was so appreciative and was nearly in tears getting a big pizza was really nice to watch.

Learning Challenge: Deskercise

The Learning by H.E.A.R.T challenge I did this week was the Deskercise challenge which was under Health/Happiness. it was to read an article about the different kind of exercise you can do while sitting at your desk, and to see if I wanted to try any out. The one I was most surprised was considered an exercise was fidgeting, as I'm literally always fidgeting even when I'm talking on the phone I find myself pacing and I'm constantly asked to stop shaking my leg so I'll definitely continue to fidget now that I know it's considered an exercise.
All of the exercises seem pretty easy and handy to do so I might try and give them a go and see if I feel more positive when I've been sitting in college all day.

Learning Challenge: Happiness Jar

So I haven't been very good at this challenge so far so  I'm going to start fresh from day one again...

Today I was happy and thankful because my nanie brought me out for lunch and an old friend I used to work with came into my job to visit me.

Learning Challenge: Happiness Jar

I have decided to try the Happiness jar challenge through my blogs where everyday this week I will take note of something that made me happy or thankful, I will then talk about how I found the challenge at the end of the week! Im hoping I will find this challenge rewarding and become more grateful for all the good things that happen on a daily basis.
