Yesterday was sooo frustrating that it was felt if cyberspace was a marriage partner I would be divorced by now. That was until I realized that the the individual behavior and performance were being affected by frustrations over something that could have been simple. I removed myself from the computer for a few hours. Then I found a more in the know person who said he did not know much of how to fix the problem. It was not his field. However he explained that if I left the computer alone for a day it would more than likely correct any mistakes that I had made.
The computer has. I am able to write this for you to read. Wow and it feels great. Is this enough reward for now?
If I look at the Mars Model of Individual Behavior and Performance I have a living breathing example of the influence of 'non ability/ aptitudes' factors are reflected in peoples frustration, and operational behaviors. How past experiences and learned behaviors really do affect and influence the ability to generate the finalization of tasks.
Learning the behaviours required to cope with, while negotiating through the steps required in processing tasks, being able to finalise the job successfully, not only needs stepping stones but mentors. Mentors being someone/s who can patiently put into a young (in task learning) head old wisdom.
Then the day begings to look better, the concentration is not so tunnel visioned, the blood pressure lowers and you feel more friendly to be around. One hears the laughter, and shares the smiles of a stepping stone reached, a mile travelled and a congratulatory pat on the back.
