concepts of running and managing a business. Personally, what I enjoy generally is implying these concepts in real-life situations. Seeing the legitimate effects are greatly stimulating to me. I continusouly perceived myself running a stable/well- establish business; however, I never viewed myself running my own business. For my part, I find by no means, I have all the characteristics an entrepreneur should have. Therefore, the results are not surprising, but assuring on what my strengths and…
frustrates me the most is that I am so dedicated, structured, and organized that I can’t allow myself free time if I know there is work to be done. Regardless of how burned out I am, I can’t quit if I have assignments due. At times I judge myself too hard, causing my anxiety level go up. Also, that I am caring and concerned with others so much so that when I do have free time I don’t spend it on myself to relax. I am helping others that I had to put on hold because of assignments that were due…
To me, leadership is to guide and influence the team to achieve a goal together. For that, I would give myself a rate of 4 out of 5 for my leadership skill. I will not consider myself a great leader, but I certainly had done a good job leading my team in the past three months. When I started taking the role of event coordinator, I took up greater responsibility than I had ever done before this internship. I am thankful that I was able to successfully organised events. For all these events, I was…
We exist in life individually, but when we share our stories with others we create the possibility of someone else being able to relate. In a way, sharing my personal journey statement can bring me together with others who see the same vision as myself. I know this isn’t the kind of story you’d expect to hear, but I can guarantee you this is a story that needs to be heard. My journey of self-development has taken scale on a variety of experiences. As a child, I was always withdrawn, almost as if…
Experiencing a depression myself, I have lived in my own despairing world of black and white, stripped of color and excitement. I deemed suicide an easy, enticing escape from my perpetual miseries. However, I could not allow this pathetic darkness to defile me and drain all the love left in me. I prevailed, obliterating this monster inside me, and I feel as if my application would be incomplete…
There have serval archetypes that identify with my persona, which are the wise old man, caregiver, hero, and joker. The archetype that matches the best is the “wise old man” from the result of the personality test. To represent this, I draw a piece of sky on my mask. I also other soft colors and a heart to represent me as a caregiver and other of my archetypes. I’m organized, and lived at my own pace. I would consider me, my mask side, as one who has a lot sympathy, because I always listen to…
As I get older I am constantly looking for ways to better myself, whether is be physically, musically, or mentally. My drive and motivation for self improvement definitely evolved from my involvement in wind ensemble. Every day the instructor tells us how high his expectations are for us and how we can set individual goals for ourselves to reach those expectations. I set three music goals for myself this past coming year and managed to accomplish two of them. One of them was to…
There I was in the kitchen opening up the scores to my ACT. I have been waiting months to see what I got. I thought to myself, all this studying finally paid off. I remember right after we completed the test how well I thought I did, that even though this was my first time taking it, I was going to get a score no less than a thirty. My mother was in the living room reading a magazine, I was in the kitchen about to open the letter. I opened the letter and saw my score. It was a twenty… I…
maneuvered to motivate myself as I become more self-aware of myself. In addition, FIRO-B helped me to come to terms with how much affection I truly desire towards me, which I have been in denial and unable to accept…
Wanting something more for myself, my future, and the rest of my life. Deciding how to push myself on my own wasn't impossible, but it was a struggle. Being a first generation college student in my family makes me want to become the best I can be, not only to show my family that I can do it, but myself. This predicament is quite unsuitable, as when I was a child I didn't know what to do. I really never understand the purpose of education until I became a freshman in High School. I would be…
