Personal Narrative: Where I See Myself

Improved Essays
Where do I see myself five years from now? I haven’t ever been asked this question before so it never occurred to me to actually sit down and think about it. I’m seventeen years old so at my age kids don’t really think about the future and where we see ourselves five years ahead. I know for myself I am a live in the moment, looking for the next adventure type of person. Being asked this question really makes me slow down and think. Five years from now I see myself far away from the town of Swansboro. I know many people may say that and most end up getting stuck here in this small town anyway, but I am one of the few who will do my best to make sure I am not here in 5 years. I would love to see myself in a big city finishing school and starting

    Where will I be in ten years? This is a question I often reflectively pose to myself. How can one simple question, containing just seven little words, be full of such endless possibilities and outcomes? Ten years ago, I would not have said that I would be a full time student, on my way to earning a degree in Sociology. Ten years ago I was still in my career of choice, truck driving.…

    Webinar Case Study

    Webinar Webinars are a very profitable model to build and grow a business. In order to put on a webinar many people think that you need to spend $400 a month on a gotomeeting.com account and personally I don’t like their system. I avoided webinars for the longest time because I thought the barrier to get started was too difficult and pricey to get started when it is actually so simple and cheap. The truth is you can put on webinars for the one-time cost of a plugin and video software, then air them through youtube livestream but self-host them. I already mentioned the video software under creating videos on page 62, depending on your budget (free to a few hundred dollars).…

    I am not surprised at the outcome of the assessment. This style of leading likes to obtain input from the team, they have an effective communication. This helps build self-confidence within the team as well as personally. With all the input from the team the leader will keep them informed on the progress, or any information about achieving the goal (Woodcock, 2001). Participation leadership is a great leadership style that will allow the team and leader to grow and learn new traits and talents.…

    I like to think that I can see my future based on the decisions that I make now because the choices that I am making now will set up how my future will look like, so if I make poor choices then my life won 't be the best it can be and if I make positive choices then it would be a lot better than making the wrong ones. When I am in the future I want to be reflecting on all the good that has happened in the past like, education, friends and my work ethic. Reflecting on my future, well pre-reflecting, I want to be able to look on my past and say that I can look back and say that I wouldn 't change a thing about the choices that I made. Most people that I know of think back and wish that they could do something, anything to change what they did in the past, but I would hope that I can go into the future without wanting to look back and wish that I could have changed some of the decisions that I had made. I want my future to be either the present or the future, not the…
