Well another term of college finished and back to the ward again. I'm looking forward to getting back onto the clinical setting as a student again. It feels so long since the last placement, just two months ago but a lot has happened in that time.
I had a very busy day today sorting bits and pieces out that I've let slide whilst I was working on the essay. It felt really good to finally deal with these jobs that have been sitting at the back of my mind and niggling away at me. I don't know why I always do this; just leaving things to the last minute or putting things away on a shelf always saying I'll deal with it tomorrow. I should know better by now.
I should remember the feeling of satisfaction I gained from today and try to remember that when I next have a job that requires my attention. *laugh* Ahh such wonderful ideas and plans....Very noble these thoughts, don't you think? This reflective learning process which we are constantly told is the way to learn.
[experience] + [reflect -> utilise positive feelings, remove obstructive feelings and re-evaluate experience] = [new perspectives on experience, change in behaviour, readiness for application and commitment for action]
We learn but do we pay attention to what we have learned or do we still take what we assume is the easier option? Is it a case of not being able to teach an old dog new tricks or do we take the road less travelled? We'll see...
