Matthew Rippey TFB Reflection by https://padlet.com/mbrippey/u7nzpdwpijo3xkvx Made with GRIT en-us 2021-03-12 20:38:32 UTC 2021-03-12 21:03:03 UTC hello@padlet.com I want to change the way I fear I will fail at school due to my history of bad grades and lack of motivation in the past mbrippey https://padlet.com/mbrippey/u7nzpdwpijo3xkvx/wish/1304259039 2021-03-12 20:40:54 UTC https://padlet.com/mbrippey/u7nzpdwpijo3xkvx/wish/1304259039 I would like to not get discouraged everytime I see I bad grade or feel overwhelmed mbrippey https://padlet.com/mbrippey/u7nzpdwpijo3xkvx/wish/1304281559 2021-03-12 20:49:57 UTC https://padlet.com/mbrippey/u7nzpdwpijo3xkvx/wish/1304281559 When I was younger my little brother was always the straight "A" student and I was not, I chose to focus on basketball but my grades were never good enough and my parents often praised him more because he got into a big university and was good at school. mbrippey https://padlet.com/mbrippey/u7nzpdwpijo3xkvx/wish/1304282580 2021-03-12 20:50:22 UTC https://padlet.com/mbrippey/u7nzpdwpijo3xkvx/wish/1304282580 I think for the longest time I just assumed I was not good at school and it would never be something I am good at and therefor why try. mbrippey https://padlet.com/mbrippey/u7nzpdwpijo3xkvx/wish/1304286969 2021-03-12 20:52:12 UTC https://padlet.com/mbrippey/u7nzpdwpijo3xkvx/wish/1304286969 I dont think my parents believe i am actually going to start and finish college this time around, they of course support me but i feel like they doubt I will stick with it or pass just because I didnt do very well or care about it when I was younger. I am my biggest critic for how difficult this will be. mbrippey https://padlet.com/mbrippey/u7nzpdwpijo3xkvx/wish/1304288267 2021-03-12 20:52:46 UTC https://padlet.com/mbrippey/u7nzpdwpijo3xkvx/wish/1304288267 I attempted to go to school got 15 years ago enough to "pass" and stopped. I assumed I could not do any better. I am going to try again but this time, I am going to show my boys that their dad can do more than play basketball, I want to show them anyone can start and finish school even if it is the hardest thing in the world, the important part is to not give up and believe in yourself. They are what helps change my TFB on this topic for me. mbrippey https://padlet.com/mbrippey/u7nzpdwpijo3xkvx/wish/1304292169 2021-03-12 20:54:27 UTC https://padlet.com/mbrippey/u7nzpdwpijo3xkvx/wish/1304292169 mbrippey https://padlet.com/mbrippey/u7nzpdwpijo3xkvx/wish/1304299624 2021-03-12 20:57:50 UTC https://padlet.com/mbrippey/u7nzpdwpijo3xkvx/wish/1304299624
