Re-Tooling TBL

For several years TBL was a blog where I wrote about a wide variety of topics. Those postings are still in the Blog Archive and many are about professional development for engineers. I am now transitioning TBL to be a place where my current and former students can find information related to job searches.

Self-Reflection Part 1

Do we spend enough time looking inward to see if we are comfortable with what we see? I don't.

Maybe a better question is, what can be gained by doing this? Well, have you ever heard the old quote: "We are our own worst enemy"?

As professionals in a work environment, we want to be successful at what we do. One of the best ways to find success is to identify what behaviors or attitudes we have the inhibit success and then find ways to change them.

In the following days I am going to post a series of questions aimed at just this. I suggest you take 5 minutes to write down answers to the questions and begin to form a picture of what needs to be changed and how to go about changing. I will be doing this for myself as well.

Question 1:

How confident am I when I begin somehting new? In what ways do I feel confident and in what ways do I feel insecure?
