Self-Regulation and Financial Freedom

I think about self-regulation and what comes to mind is what I’ve been through these past few years. I worked two retail jobs to help a budget for my companies, and to revise our marketing strategies as well. Basically I was preparing for my future while managing three different workloads, so that me and my family can achieve financial freedom while providing a public service. "Executive functioning" is a set of mental processes that connects my past experiences with my present. We use it to perform activities such as planning, organizing, strategizing, paying attention to details, and time management. I graduated from high school in june 2005, and then I attended mercer county community college to further my education. I thought it was best for me to go from high school straight to college. but the workload was to heavy for me, and I had to cope with my learning disability. When I say my learning disability I mean the way I learn and process information sometimes i read a word that is not there. There are times when I put words in the text or paragraph I 'm reading at the time. On average, adults continually improve their ability to self-assess strengths and weaknesses and revise goals. These types of behaviors are powerful predictors of learning outcomes (Desoete, Roeyers, & DeClercq, 2003; Veenman, Van Hout-Wolters, & Afflerback, 2006; Wang, Haertel, & Walberg, 1990).

Being distracted from fatherhood is a hard truth to admit. I thought I was being a good father because I brought home a paycheck, but I was wrong because they had no guidance from their father on how to approach the world. I have taught them to not being afraid of following their emotions and running with what they feel. Everybody is going to make right and wrong decisions in their lives, but I don 't think your truly living if you 're afraid of making a decision at all. People are complacent with what they have accomplished then they get lazy. I want to drive my own life for what I know is the right choice. I will from here on out stay positive and move forward because I might one day effect somebody with my positive light, and hopefully they are under my same roof.

Self regulation is great if you know how to work it for your benefit. I will use it in this class, and my future classes by being more organized. I will regulate the other activities that have been taking up my free time, so I can finish this program with a second degree. This will make my opportunities flourish in a professional field, and my children can see by example that hard work pays off in the end. I will control my emotions when I don 't quite understand how to do something. Then I know I will find pure enjoyment in the fact that my instructors are here to help not hinder my success.
