One of my strengths is that I'm a strategist. The reason why is I had to pick from a long list of strengths to pick from that I contain and this one was selected is because although I may huff around and puff at the end of the day I think on my actions reflect and decide what am going to do that's going to get me where I'm trying to go.
If i didn't do this throughout my life I would probably try to place blame on someone or find an excuse for a lot of things and just continue to be just going with the flow. I you can write down and action and follow it then most likely you can push through until you reach it.
As I attended my first semester it was rough because I have the tendency to be very forgetful no matter how many times I write things down but two assignments stuck two me. These two assignments were the FYS's and the dream job . The reason why these two is because with the FYS's we had attend a number of sessions that informed us first years on a variety of things. covering from stress to having a good time. Without these lessons there are a lot of things I still would not be aware of and not be able to look out for.
The dream job assignment was big to me because it showed me the many opportunities that were heading my way once I achieve this bachelors degree in Fashion and retail. No matter the description the majority of positions that had made me more anxious and excited for my decision in this field and what job I would attain from it.
After passing this class this semester with a hopeful A my self esteem will be boosted so much because I want to try my best and nothing is better than a reward for the things you tried hard on.
