Do you have an internal or external locus of control?

/in /by

First, explain how you identify yourself: Do you have an internal or external locus of control? You must provide an explanation of HOW you decided this. Use terminology from your text to help you.  

What do you do if you have an external locus of control?
It means that you believe that your own actions have an impact. If you tend to have more of an external locus of control, you might find it helpful to start actively trying to change how you view situations and events.

Then, answer the following questions:

1. How have you used your identified locus of control to benefit you?

2. How does it limit your progress, if at all?

3. Are you satisfied with your identified locus of control?

4. If you want to make changes, what are they and how will you make them?

5. If money or time were not factors, what would you be doing with your life right now?

People who develop an internal locus of control believe that they are responsible for their own success. Those with an external locus of control believe that external forces, like luck, determine their outcomes.
