Although I never was able to track down the same GMC that I had hit and apologize, the entire circumstance strengthened my sense of responsibility and I have become extremely dynamic in similar situations that challenge my personality. Responsibility is one personality trait that I feel that I have always expressed through my actions and presentation. I understand what I am asked of every day and execute accordingly and this trait has only been strengthened through this terribly embarrassing experiences that simultaneously tested my ability to be responsible and dynamic. Being dynamic is an essential trait in everyday life that clearly demonstrates a person’s personality and attitude. A dynamic person is identified by his/her thoughts, precise and efficient performance and ability to learn what can enable him/her to succeed. I believe that being dynamic represents a person’s ability to succeed or perform in difficult situations that test his/her flexibility to reach his/her goal(s). Through this experience I have strengthened my competence of being dynamic by understanding that I will make mistakes, but not losing my heart and treating mistakes as lessons. Failure and mistakes are the rungs on the ladder that leads to one’s potential. Through this I have learned from adversity so that I do not repeat the embarrassing mishit. I have gained the capacity to adapt to changes, practice and adjust my pitching stance in order to move forward from conventional barriers and take responsibility of my

    I relate best to the short excerpt from Dr. John Siegel. He describes how the discussion at a meeting among colleagues at a hospital began to digress as the subject was changed from the main focus of the meeting (educational experience for patients) to side issues such as frustration with the medical system. By reminding his superiors of their primary goal (to provide excellent medical care to their patients) he inadvertently prompted them to consider the common values that they share which led them to their chosen profession. This got the meeting back on track and the committee was able to successfully restructure their education plan.…

On the contrary, the second relationship is all about neurons and the pruning of the brain.…

    I feared negative evaluation, social gatherings and was my own worst nightmare—in a perpetual battle for my peace of mind. “Why am I this way?” I thought; I could not figure it out, but I knew there was more to life than social anxiety. Walking in fear every day, feeling under the spotlight, there had to be a way out. Not being able to function in society, my self-worth shrunk, but what hurt me the most was not being able to express myself.…
