1. Write about the areas on the self-assessment in which you had
   your highest scores.

By doing the self-assessment, I also learned that I... do accept responsibility for
my actions. I do not blame others for my lack of progress in my desire to have a
degree or my unhappiness of my situation in life. I feel good about the fact that I
am honest with myself because I know lying to ones self only makes reaching
your goals that much more difficult. It also makes reaching your goals a lot longer.


2. Write about the areas of the self-assessment in which you had
   your lowest scores.

By doing the self-assessment, I also learned that I...am a very disorganized
person and I think it stems from the fact that I can be a very lazy person. I am
occasionally depressed and when that happens things I need or want to
accomplish come to a complete stand still. I also allow negative thoughts and
beliefs that I have about my abilities to finish college scare me away from
finishing. I have yet to figure out why I get so scared and nervous about school,
but I really really want a degree. It has been a want of mine for a very long time.
