Why I Should Be Chosen For Camp

My past leadership responsibilities have taught me that admitting my mistakes and showing humanity betters myself as well as those around me. My peers trust and have more faith in me because I have demonstrated humanity to them instead of acting as if I am perfect. This allows fellow students to approach me for advice when they have problems because they know that I am willing to help them as well as be their voice if they do not feel comfortable presenting the conflict.

I should be chosen for Camp because my commitment, work ethic, and dedication to my school, community, and athletics have awarded and prepared me for this opportunity. I am a different type of leader because I am not an outgoing person, which is usually a characteristic

    Personal Essay: My Experience As A Section Leader

    My heart is beating quickly, my mouth is dry, and as I look at the familiar faces in front of me, their judging eyes make them seem like strangers. I struggle to get them to quiet down and we begin our hour long sectional, which I have to lead. It was the first day of my third year in marching band and at the end of last year, with the graduation of the previous section leader, I was granted his important position. Being a competitive person, I was extremely self conscience of how my section made me look. I hated being blamed for their errors and was exceedingly harsh towards them during sectionals.…

    Personal Essay: Why I Should Be In The NHS

    Why I Should Be in the NHS When I got the letter in the mail and talked to Mr.Steele I realized that it would be an honor to be included in NHS. National Honors Society looks to help the needy and one thing I love to do is help. I feel that I would be right in this society because ever since I was little I had a goal, and that was to be successful and help along the way. Growing up my parents taught me to take responsibility and achieve whatever I set my mind to.…

    Why I Want To Be A True Leader?

    1. I want to be a Wyldlife leader because I want to be someone that middle schoolers can talk to about Jesus, personal struggles, friendship troubles, school, and life in general. As a middle schooler, I was really insecure and had issues with friends, but I was really close to my Wyldlife leaders. They were always full of advice and good role models. I want to be like that for middle schoolers because I’ve been through many of the same things.…

    The Four Pillars Of NHS

    Being a leader doesn’t mean you have to be the best it just means you have to want other people to become better and are willing to help them as well as yourself. Taking a role in something that will help even one person can mean so much and give you greater things in return. Just knowing that you helped and taught someone to make them a better person should be a wonderful accomplishment. A leader does not mean you have to go and do something outrageous; the little things mean more than the big once in a while. Last…

    My Reflection On Leading Small Groups

    This course taught me some very valuable skills that I have been able to practice in order to grow as not only a leader, but as a person. I have had past experience with leading small groups because of being a peer mentor, a freshman retreat leader and a kairos leader; however, leading larger groups proved very difficult for me on kairos and when I came back to school fully focused on the year ahead of me rather than the kairos experience that took up a lot of my attention I was able to learn, through faith in action, some skills for leading small groups. Through urban plunge practice, we saw both successful and unsuccessful large group leadership tactics. We both talked it over and put it in to action with each other in order to refine our…

    To me leadership, as quoted by Jack Welch is, “Before you are a leader, success is all about growing yourself. When you become a leader, success is all about growing others.” Before becoming a leader, you are just working on the tasks assigned to you; doing the best what comes naturally to you like running a project and meeting deadlines; in essence, growing yourself; focusing on your weaknesses and strengths and trying to improve yourself than before. Then all of a sudden, after your promotion you become the manager, all your responsibilities gets changed as you are the boss now.

    Essay On Capernaum Camp Experience

    My understanding of intellectual disabilities has expanded because now I am able to relate the specifics from our textbook to experiences I have had while helping at Younglife’s Capernaum camp, for special needs individuals. I was surprised to read in our textbook that limited intellectual ability is defined as a score of 70 or less on intelligence testing. The Capernaum camp experience is for anyone with a disability, whether physical or intellectual, and the range of issues spans greatly when we are at camp, because so many regional groups come during the same period of time. A couple of times a year I am the camp nurse for the group, and the camp is about an hour away.…

    Personal Narrative: How To Be An Effective Leader

    The more time I spend in a leadership position the more I learn how to be an effective leader. As a young adult (fresh out of high school) I was an assistant manager at a local fast food restaurant. I thought people would do what I wanted them to do because I was the assistant manager. This worked for a short time but as they began to know me, their attitudes changed and they began to take advantage of my kindness.…

    Coming into this class, I believed I had a very clear understanding of my leadership style and how I was able to work through different situations. My leadership style has a major influence from my home life and how I was taught to act and to treat others. With this, going through the different types of leadership during class, such as the seven C’s, the Myer-Briggs personality test, and the Leadership styles test, has let me understand more clearly the leadership styles I have developed over time. I have come to realize that the seven C’s most important to me are Commitment, Consciousness of Self, and Citizenship…
