7 and 1/2 lifelong learning habits

I feel very tense and have writer's block. Should I be funny or serious? I know I am putting way too much pressure on myself. I should just take the advice of Habit 7 1/2 and play!

Because I take graduate classes online, several of the habits come easily to me. I think all along I have been practicing Habit 1, begin with the end in mind, and habit 2, accept responsibility for your own learning. (As a side note I would like to mention that I am graduating in September so the end really is near).

The hardest habit is number 3, viewing problems as challenges. I'm not really finding the words to describe why I feel that way. I think sometimes I want a quick fix or I want someone else to deal with the problem if it's really complicated.
