Learner Identity

1 min read

My learner identity differentiates a lot depending on the subject I am learning, as well as the day. Certain days I am excited to learn, and motivate myself to think that my future depends on my current learning. If I have a bad day, it is tough to think about the future because I am too caught up in the present. Personally, I believe a lot of my motivation comes from if I am interested in the topic or not. The subjects I am weak in make it tough for me to be a good and conscientious worker because when I don't understand something I find myself less motivated. In the past, I've found that if I put aside time and make myself learn little by little the subjects I struggle with I benefit more in the long run. Overall, I believe that when I shift the focus on my future career I become a better and more motivated learner.
