My current goals are to succeed as a senior at Michigan, complete my writing samples for master’s programs in August, and prepare for the GRE’s in August as well. After the presentation I realized that I didn’t actively adopt a growth mindset until I was in college. As of now I try to remain mindful about the ways that I can grow; but, of course, writing these blogs only help and even spark my understanding of the ways in which I should focus on remaining flexible, instead of being carried away on the whims of giving up. After this program when I get back to Pennsylvania, my biggest structural challenge will be maintaining a self-imposed routine of working. Although the busy atmosphere back in my hometown is harder to find in coffee shops than it is in Ann Arbor, I can at least go to my local university library to prepare for September.
