Throughout the week, I learned to focus on a main idea and form my own opinion with it. Everyone has different perspective, everyone looks at things differently, and everyone feels differently about different topics. I learned this week the importance of finding a voice, and being able to express my opinions freely. Often times, I find myself to be one of those people that just glides through life, never really expressing my own opinion, in an attempt to to please everyone. I keep my opinions to myself in fear of being wrong or judged. I have often kept quiet about my opinions, especially academically. When working with partners on our notes for the writers workshop, I openly stated my opinion on internet tracking, and was able to discuss it, without major anxiety. This is actually a huge step for me. I feel as though through the weeks of work we have done so far in class, I have found a confidence when it comes to sharing my opinion. I know that this is a huge shock, because when it comes to anything else, you can’t get me to shut my mouth, but I have always been so worried about being wrong, that I often don’t share my answers in school. Learning how to voice myself has been a really big step for me. https://www.skillsyouneed.com/ps/confidence.html
