One way to be successful licensed psychologist to have a lot of patience with your patients, because of the fact that a lot of people have trouble expressing what they are feeling especially when it's with someone they are not familiar with. Not only that, but because if a psychologist does not have patience or shows any sign that they are getting impatient, then the their patient will get uncomfortable, therefore causing them not to trust that particular psychologist and will most likely leave that psychologist and go to another psychologist, so this can also be a matter of economic success or failure.
According to Allaboutpsychology.net, "Patience and care are not optional. Those who desire to fully pursue psychology careers will need to call on patience on a daily basis." With this, a psychologist can be able to help a person find a healthy balance between their emotions.

Service Learning
Starting on Tuesday, the 17th, I will be going to Golden Springs Elementary School to present to the 4th, 5th, and 6th graders. The principle of the school is Alan Pantanini. The number for the schools' main office is:
(909) 397- 4596
So far I have been working with Mrs. Ortega in the preparation process and we have been meeting at least twice a week and coming up with ideas for lessons for the days that we will present to the elementary.
So far we have been preparing a presentation, starting with Bullying, which explains what a child should do if he/she is being bullied, the effects of someone being bullied, etc. and along with that presentation we have filmed students that are talking about their personal experiences or struggles with bullying from the past and made a video for that presentation. We have also been coming up with follow-up lessons, for example our next lesson will be on Conflicts and what different types of conflicts there are, which also ties in with Bullying.
I have worked 19.5 hours so far

ESLR's
1. I'm focusing on the Effective Communicator and Effective Citizen.
2. For Effective Communicator, I will be presenting more than once to elementary students as part of my service learning, and will be so far I have done one practice presentation during my elective to Peer Mediation. For Effective Citizen I will have to know how to talk to the elementary students and know the proper way to get their attention.
3. This will help me by giving me more practice in presenting before the final 2 hour presentations come. Also it will give me better communication skills for when I have a job and will be able to establish a good working environment.
