I then completed military correspondence courses and various United States Army schools. I took some classes at central Texas college, then I continued my educational stand at a Universal technical institute in Southern California. I continued to study at the college of the Sequoias in Visalia, CA. Then I found myself here at Porterville College studying for business administration, and this is all the recorded education I have. It has become common today to dismiss that if you want something in life you must work hard at it. Anything is accomplishable, because there is always room for improvement.

As for mine, I believe they are in the category of wanting to learn new things being alert of my surroundings. Another is selfless service, I am willing to help others if they so choose to accept it. Some of my educational weaknesses are concentrating and being gullible.I always believed that you will always find strengths and weaknesses in everything that you do. According to brainology if you do something properly the first time, you can always find your strengths and weaknesses and ways to improve. As described in brainology, Einstein didn't get smart by being born that way he worked at it. When a task is given I am always willing to charge it, whether i can do it or not. If someone has an idea to interject then I am always on board to introduce it to what was going on at the time. This goes to my weaknesses. I tend to not make enough time to get focused on what I'm doing because I love to be all over the place getting my hands in all sorts of tasks, making me vulnerable to what is going on and to the people around

    My four letter personality type is INFP, which stands for introverted, Intuitive, Feeling and Perceiving. Typically people with INFP personality types are caring, thoughtful, intuitive and considerate. However they are also perfectionists and its common for them to be awkward when they are speaking aloud. INFPs are very causal and laid back, but that also contributes to their terrible organization habits, although if one of their beliefs are violated . At that time INFPs can become very aggressive in order to protect or fight for what they believe.…

    The Obstacles that Prevent Me from Reaching My Goal Core beliefs are beliefs that are repeated thoughts that people hold on too strongly. “These beliefs become the lenses through which we see the world. Whether accurate or distorted, our beliefs dictate the choices we make at each fork in the road” (Downing 178). When I was a little kid, I unconsciously formed core beliefs about the world, other people, and myself. For instance, throughout my childhood, my parents tended and comforted me, and they provided food and warmth for me.…

    The obstacles that I have had to overcome within my life has made me a stronger person and shaped the way i feel about life. Firstly, I came from a low income family. This has shown me all the ways a person could fail, but it has also shown me how to avoid these downfalls and be a better person. A lack of high education in my family drives me to go and finish college and then maybe even go to graduate school. Another obstacle that I have had to overcome is the rigorous classes that I have taken throughout middle and high school.…

    I think going through such a tough time in my life made me realize the importance of working hard and taking advantage of the opportunities put in front of me. Looking back on this experience, I have realized how it affected me so I can put this to paper. From time to time I look back on this quote and its importance: “All life demands struggle. Those who have everything given to them become lazy, selfish, and insensitive to the real values of life. The very striving and hard work that we so constantly try to avoid is the major building block in the person we are today.”…
