“Seek first to understand, then to be understood.” –Stephen Covey
1) Reflect upon what you read in Chapter 11 of Thriving in College. What does this quote mean to you or how can you apply it to your life?
before you speak, think about what you are going to say in order for people to understand what you are saying better. if you don't think before you say something, it will all come out really fast and not make sense and the people you are talking to will not understand.
2) (Refer to page 380 of the text):
Are you a “Crisis Tickler,” “Withholder,” “Irritator,” “Blamer,” or “Gunnysacker?” Explain.
i am a withholder because i do not like to deal with things. if someone is yelling at me i get really angry and dont want to deal with them so i just walk away from them or leave the room.

I do that too; leave the room or avoid confrontations. Usually it's not too healthy but I understand where you're coming from. I think it's harder for women to confront others and to be angry. Yea, I just can't see you fighting with anyone :)
