What I have learned about myself in class (299)
March 20th, 2011 • Uncategorized
I think the most prominent thing I’ve learned about myself in this class are what my skills are, thanks to Strengthquest! Well, actualy, I already knew what I was good at. What I’ve really learned in this course, is how the skills I posses translate into assets in the working world. Before this class, I did not have a super clear view of my “value”, mainly because I did not really know what an employer is looking for in an employee. Now that I’ve gone through a large portion of this class, I’ve gained a lot of insight into what gets you where in the business world and in seeing this have been able to size myself up and determine what I have to offer and see where that may take me. In general, I’ve gained quite a great appreciation for myself in analyzing and embellishing all of my strengths. In addition, I’ve found that self-improvement motivates me. I’ve always been a very competative person and in writing resumes and going to interviews, I’ve found that I have a desire to be better than everyone else. This desire motivates me to go out and accomplish new things in order to add to my personal resume. Unfortunately, I’ve found it hard to go out and do awesome things as I’m usualy bogged down with work. Although, I guess school is a good form of self-improvement, atleast I hope it is.
