Life Long Learner

I believe that everyone is a life long learner but some of us are more focused and committed to the process. Others, like myself, struggle with an "I can't" complex. Although I know this is not healthy, I still have to fight the natural tendancy to see huge roadblocks to any new idea or project. Once I get started, however, I do fine. Sometimes, I suprise myself and others by being the intiator rather than the resistant follower. Usually, I am a combination of both. This class is a good example. My first response was, "I don't have time, I don't really need this, etc." The more I resisted, the more I realized some of my resistance was related to the limitations of our library web page and how frustrating it is to try anything new that might be related to that. So then, I switch boats and try to explain to other staff members why we need a new web page so we can use stuff like blogs and wikiis. Go figure. So, here I am, scrambling to get caught up with the rest of the class.
