The My Hero Project

look into my life Growing up for me was very difficult. My mother was a single parent that had four children. One in which, has cerebral palsy. My dad was never in my life, even though I know who he is, he was never there for us. So everything was up to my mom. For example, it was her job to buy us our food, our clothes, and make sure we were all going to school on time.We lived in a duplex that was run under the government. For a long time, my mom had to go to our local food bank because my…

in reality, heroes are supposed to be people that use the events around them, and their knowledge to complete their tasks. They are usually based off of appearances, and are not always viewed by the traits that make them fit into the title of a hero. A hero has characteristics of being honorable, being selfless when trying to protect others, and not acting fearful when everything around is against your favor. Heroes are people that are honorable/honored because their lives were sacrificed for…

In this paper, I will reflect my experience of attending the Saint Paul City Council meeting. I will share on how awards and grants by Saint Paul City Councils approve projects, programs, and strategies to improve the capital in Saint Paul. In addition, I will go into details of the City of Saint Paul source of funding to provide awards and grants to proposals made by the City of Saint Paul residents. I then will discuss a proposal that was discussed by the proposer and the Saint Paul City…

Throughout my early childhood, I was faced with adversity which resulted in critical learning experiences shaping me into the person I am today. Growing up, my family had just enough money to get by. We resided in a townhome with 3 bedrooms along with 12 other family members. The townhome was connected to a convenient store that was owned and operated by my family. My brother and I didn’t always get everything we asked for but our parents never gave up on giving us a more enriching childhood…

reflecting on what my next move would be. I had resigned a month earlier and made a trip up country to go and reflect on what I wanted to accomplish in the coming years. With me I had a copy of my favorite book, ‘Influence’ by Robert Cialdini. My mind was set on a career in communication with the long term goal of setting up my own consultancy. I was looking for an opportunity to work with one of the bigger agencies in the country and improve my skill set. I was confident of my abilities – may…

sat in the Vines’ Center seats, I listened to Donald Miller talk about the four kinds of people in a story: the victim, the villain, the hero, and the guide. I personally feel that my trials through life were given to me so I could fulfill the role of a guide in my life and others. My perspective is not commonly found in society today and I have a strong desire in my heart to help. I believe that Liberty University can help me grow and develop leadership skills to become what God has intended me…

profiles? Do you have a presence on LinkedIn, Twitter and Facebook? My current social media presence consists of LinkedIn, Twitter and Facebook. Overall, I do not have an active presence on Twitter and Facebook. My primary focus, for about the last year, has been enhancing my LinkedIn profile. This decision is heavily motivated by the approach of my graduation and current job searching. How are you using them? In regard to my activity on Facebook, I do not create original (statues updates)…

but with Electroma I feel that they did drag on a little bit. I watched the movie with my brother and he almost fell asleep Also the message that they get across, while they did do a great job, is a little cliché. I saw the ending coming from a mile away, as well as other scenes like when they get chased out of town. Some people will deny it, but Electroma has that pretentious sort of feel. Those are really my only…

“What should I do with my life?” I first asked myself this question when I was six and I thought I could be a Power Ranger. Much to my parents' relief, that phase ended abruptly at age seven when they took me to meet Jason David Frank - the White Ranger. In that pivotal meeting, I stood in front of a real Power Ranger and was speechless. But I wasn’t star struck, I was disappointed. This man, whom I had idolized as a hero, was just a normal guy. I didn’t want to just watch actors be Power…

strength, leadership, arete of value of honour, and the acceptance of fate. The heroic code is illustrated by the actions of the Trojan prince, Hector and the Achaeans strongest warrior, Achilles. Both of these characters display the Greek’s image of a hero, and can also let the reader discern what the society admires, looks up to and aspires to in its heroes. There are also characters who fail to be heroic, such as the Trojan “vivid and beautiful” prince, Paris. These characters in the Iliad…
