Week 4: Growth Mindset

So far, waking up early in the morning been a total fail. My life took on a totally different turn. So many unexpected and unwelcomed struggles and issues popped up and I completely lost control of my life. When I read about growth mindset, what I learned was that progress will not occur in one day, it takes time. I am going to get my life back in check, but I realize it will be slow process. First, I am going to catch up with my school work, because I am behind on almost all of my classes. Then, I am going to try to finish my assignments and other school work early. This will give me room to deal with issues that I have to face to now. I will also have to find room to fit in my MCAT studies. I am going to try to wake up at six am. I don’t know how effective that will be. I might not be able to wake up every day at six; however I am going to try.

Getting Life Back Together

Week 4, Reading Diary A; Amar Chitra Kadha

I read two books named Rama and Ancestors of Rama this week for my Reading Diary A.
First book I read was names Rama. This book gave a short description of Ramayana. Dasharatha had four boys, the eldest was Rama, then Lakshmana, Bharata and Shatrughna. Rama was special and was loved by everyone. He possessed many qualities and abilities. Once he and Lakshmana fought many rakshasa under the order of Vishwamitra. Rama married Sita and short after, when Rama was decided to crown the king, Rama's step mother intervened and made Rama go to exile. With Rama, Lakshmana and Sita also went in to the forest. Rama ended up killing Ravana, the ten headed Rakshsa king to save Sita. In the process of getting Sita back, Hanuman had set Lanka on fire.
Next story I read was Ancestors of Rama. As the heading of the story, it gave an explanation of Rama's ancestors. Rama's great grandfather was Dilipa, then Ragu, then Aja and Rama's father Dasharatha. How Dilipa and his wife Sudkshina concived Raju was an interesting story. Two holy cows named Surabhi and Nandini were involved in this story.
