Designing SuccessThe Beginning of My Journey

(Come on and Follow Along!)
This was my first class at Full Sail University and I used many resources available to me to become familiar with software programs, the school platform, the MAC, and to learn how other “Masters”had mastered their craft. I made a video using iMovie and FaceTime, which are MAC based and this is the first time using a MAC. I am getting used to using the MAC system now. My instructor was very helpful and patient. She gave great feedback and input. The class discussions allowed me to see from others perspectives.
Two Strategies I learned from the book “Mastery” by Robert Green are:
• Play to your strengths: Supreme Focus (Greene, 2012, p. 274).
• Transform yourself through practice: The Fingertip Feel (Greene, 2012, p. 285)
I used lynda.com and YouTube.com for video tutorials and information about how to use software and other resources like Tumblr for my Mastery Journal. I used our text book and did research in the school library and the Internet. I practiced using the MAC, software, and school platform and I used my writing skills and research skills to finish this course successfully. I learned new skills that I can apply toward future classes. I found weak areas in my skill set that I need to do a lot of practice. and self study in.
