The beginning Module 1 went live on Monday January 8 2018 I went through many emotions that started with excitement because this is the beginning of achieving my MBA I was nervous as well not knowing what to expect The voice in my head so many questions What team will I be assigned to What will be their work ethic Will we be compatible Did I make the right decision to obtain my MBA at the same time I am transitioning from the Army I started to feel a little intimidated and overwhelmed The first module contained a lot of reading and my thought process for completing the reading assignments was to start hard and finish early to ensure I completed the required readings I found that I stressed myself out using this method After receiving a three of five on the first quiz I realized at that moment that I need to slow down I must comprehend what I am reading as well as retain the information The lesson learned is to allow myself time after work to decompress before I start my coursework
