I searched life skills and saw a list of life skills that caught my eye. On one site there were five that grabbed my attention, they were self-direction, values based decision making, goal setting, personal productivity and personal responsibility. I liked this list because I feel they are not long and to the point. Also, values based decision making, in my opinion is important and not too many people I know understand the importance in this. This is significant because your morals and values and beliefs all play a role, in fact a huge role on what you do and how you do it. They all take part in your decision making because it's based on what you were brought up to believe and find important.



Another site I found about life skills had a list of eight. The eight are decision making, wise use of resources, communication, accepting differences, leadership, useful/marketable skills, healthy lifestyle choices and self-responsibility. I liked this list because although it is longer, i feel that it is more detailed. It focuses on a lot of moral like skills that will make each person, a better person in what they choose to pursue in the future. Accepting differences is very important because how well someone can take change can determine a lot about the type of person they are. It shows they can adapt and think of new ideas or plans due to differences and change. Leadership shows that you are your own person and like to lead the way and make the rules rather than just simply follow all of the time.
