Before I completed Skip Downing's ongoing self-assessment, I was beginning to realize one of my most sabotaging behaviors. I find it incredibly difficult to say a three-word sentence. When it comes to helping others, I have no problem lending a hand, but I can't tell anyone that "I need help." By writing this article, I hope to recognize the roots of my problem and adopt a plan to help me overcome this negative behavior. After taking the self-assessment and receiving a low score in the area of ​​interdependence, I began to think about options for overcoming this problem. my hesitations so that I can become a successful student. The first strategy is to learn that I can't do everything on my own. I generally never ask for help in my personal or professional life, and that worries me now that I'm enrolled in college full-time. In continuing this behavior, I sometimes resent those I love because they seem to settle for next to nothing, when in all honesty, I am the only one to blame. Additionally, when I don't know how to do something, I hesitate to ask for help because I feel like it makes me seem ignorant or weak. Using the first strategy, I need to learn to delegate certain responsibilities so that I can focus on passing all of my classes. I also need to start asking for help when I am unsure about something in class in order to fully understand the topic. If I do not do this, my grades will be affected and it could hurt my chances of being accepted into the nursing program. Realizing that I am not a failure or a weak person because I need help is the second strategy for learning and using interdependence. No one is perfect, and at some point... the middle of the test... is an exam, but I have to take all classes seriously and ask for help whenever I need it . I could also learn to become a better nurse if I sought advice from others who have been in the profession for a while. Writing an article about a defect was a bit difficult for me; however, I am grateful for the opportunity to look within myself for the reasons for my weakness in interdependence while finding solutions to correct this problem. I see some personal obstacles that I need to overcome and am optimistic that over time I will be able to improve significantly in the area of ​​interdependence. In my opinion, college is a learning process in more ways than one. Not only will I gain the knowledge and skills I need to succeed in whatever career I choose, but I will also learn more about myself so I can be more successful in all areas of my life..
