Journal 23

Journal 23 is about being Self- Sufficient. We have to be self sufficient a lot in life. A person can not and should not rely on someone for everything. Of course there are exceptions to this rule. For insistence if a person has a disability or a disease then they have the right to be not be self sufficient. Anyways with us being   honors and accelerated students we definitely have to be self sufficient. We have to do our own work and rely on ourselves to get work done. There is a little more pressure since we our honors students. More work is accepted of us and we have to do it all alone. When it comes to citing sources and stuff we have to be even more self sufficient. You have to make sure your work is correctly cited so you do not get in trouble for plagerizing or taking someone's work. I try to be self sufficient in things other than school. It is hard though because some people do not agree. For example in cheer, I want to be self sufficent, I want the best for my stunts and for my jumps. Others want to focus on themselves or as a group. I think sometimes being self sufficent can hurt you. If you only worry about yourself. I think that you can become selfish and selfishness can lead to so many things. It can lead to being rude and hurting people. It can also make you become a loner and leave you with no friends. No one wants that but sometimes you can not help it. It can become addictiong to do things yourself. Then you can not handle certain things when you have to do group work or a project at work. I think I have just enough of self sufficency. I can do things myself and in groups. Of course I would prefer to work on my own or maybe just one partner.
