Thing 2 - 7 1/2 habits

I read Covey's book 7 Habits books several years ago and it made quite an impact on me, but I had never thought of the habits in the context of information literacy. Great "mash up", is that the word? As was the case in the past, despite actively working to improve this area, my main issues are with seeing problems as crises to manage instead of challenges to learn from. Intellectually I know that the most creative work comes from having to think outside the box to deal with a perceived challenge or problem, but in real life I still struggle to flex and bend in a new direction. The easiest for me is to accept responsibility for my learning. That's why this old dog is still trying to learn new tricks.
