Atomic Habits & Growth

While entering this class, we were told that this course contained a lot of group work. In

the beginning, I struggled a lot with group work and had not been comfortable with taking up the

initiative while being in a group or working with another. After having done the Norse Mythology

Project, I’ve realized that I should have taken more initiative and shared more of my thoughts on

the project. There was also a lack of communication between me and my group members. Now

that I’m starting a new semester, we’ve chosen new group mates and we are starting a little

differently. Some standards that I’ve set are: trying to take more initiative and showing more

engagement while being on the team. I believe that in my last group and projects, I’ve been

doing the work but without the communication of my teammates and I think I should try and fix

that during my next project. However, being in the class, I think I’ve worked on organization and

being punctual which had helped me. Although I have a lack of communication with my group

mates, I have improved a little in working in a group but not to a certain extent. Some things that

I think I can work on are being more engaged with my group members and showing more

initiative with my group members. I think that these standards are important because it led to my

group’s misunderstanding of the project’s criteria and poor planning of the project; with more

communication, I believe that we would have had a better thought-out plan and that the project

aspects would have been more developed. Therefore, I think that with my current group, I need

to try to become more adaptive and communicate more effectively with my group.
