2. When I took the Locus of Control survey I got a score of 25, which sets me very close to
the middle of internal and external LoC terminus. While I had expected that I would get
similar score, my thoughts at the end of the survey were more directed towards the-
questions asked then about my score. The questions on they LoC survey had annoyed
me, such as on that asked whether you thought that people generally got the
respect they deserved or whether you thought they often went unrecognized. I
was immediately torn by having to compare respect to recognition, things which often do
not compare equally, and have to choose between two statements that I
 
thought were both right. Apart from my misgivings about some of the questions, I thought
that the survey went well, and I agreed with its findings. I have found that I tend to have
a much more pragmatic view of the world after going through several years of
experience. During this time, I was able to take a hard look at myself, my strengths and my
many weaknesses as well. Here at St. Ignatius Technical Institute of Business
and Arts, I am also able to examine myself, such as my Locus of Control, or
what Mindset I have. While my LoC was pretty close to internal and external on the scale,
my Mindset is noticeably deferent. While I prioritize the accumulation of new
knowledge, and I often go out of my way to research topic son my own to try
to further my interests, I also have a great fear of failure and being seen as unintelligent
which connects back to feelings of impostor ship and a more fixed mindset. It is my
hope that while at St. Ignatius Technical Institute of Business and Arts, I will
be able to change my habits and promote a more Growth Mindset within myself.
