My Reflection Of Me

     Sure, some of us have this great confidence within ourselves about looking great, but that does not hold true for everyone. I understand the pain or disgust, or even disappointment one feels when they look in the mirror and say, “I wish I could change this or that about myself”. Although this piece is written about the author’s life, it holds meaning and connects with for many people; one only has to dig deep enough to find one. For me, it was to realize what is important in life can change, adapt and that we must explore our inner selves and find our own path in life.

In presenting a theory about myself as a leader, I will attempt to draw conclusions about my strengths and weakness as a leader based on the things learned in this class. I will speculate on a reflective leadership best-self-portrait through my work experiences that draw on my interpersonal resources for vision. Recognizing my talents and shortcomings will help develop both micro and macro levels of resource development needed to reach my full potential.

Once you have all of the responses in from your survey group, start to group the responses together into themes. Some of the themes may reflect strengths you were aware of, but they may also identify things that you hadn 't realized were strengths because they come so naturally to you.

Self-Reflection is when someone looks at their reflection in the mirror and describe how they see themselves daily. For the past year, my self-observation has become a significant part of my image of myself, and I considered it necessary. It is important for me to be able to look at myself each morning to critique the flaws I have and wish away what I look like as a person. Self-confidence is something lacked in my world, and this experiment was extremely challenging at first. On average, I think about my appearance sixty to seventy percent of the day and wonder if how I look is acceptable for the public eye. It is not that I strive to look the best, it is that I am afraid someone may look at me and not see someone

While I was reading Your Inner Fish, I went through a journey that changed my viewpoint on the topic of evolution. Before reading this book, I did not believe in evolution. I thought that is was just another thing that I was being taught to believe and that it didn’t actually have any solid evidence behind it. I figured that there could never be evidence solid enough to convince me that we were related to fish in any way, shape, or form. Your Inner Fish changed my opinion by showing me that there is actual fact to back up the theory. In chapter 5, it explains about the Sonic Hedgehog gene, and how it is in every living creature including humans, and how it forms our digits, and how it is in skates as well.

however with support and hard work from my team members we won the first ever medal for the team. I find it difficult to work under tight deadlines and so I have a habit to plan out things, prioritize them and then solve them one by one. I have always been the greatest critic of myself. I introspect a lot, analyse my mistakes and try to work over them. I am a quick observer of things and people’s behaviour. This really helps me to understand the other person’s state of mind and I steer the conversation accordingly. As a result I am not really comfortable with strangers who are difficult to predict and this is one area where I would like to work on in the future. I also don’t like to look at things from a distance and give any arbitrary solution. I try to understand the core of the problem and try to look beyond the obvious.

As I stared into the mirror I became doubtful that I even looked pretty. I point out little things like I looked fat in this dress and how my hair looked a mop.

Alastier stares at me, and as more time goes on, the more serious this becomes. I straighten up and look down at my hands and the mirror. My image reflects back, the person staring back looks familiar and unfamiliar at the same time. She is me, but at the same time, she isn’t.

At my best, I love a challenge and never back down and will never let a roadblock get in the way of my goals. I thrive on new projects, tasks and adventures and am continually looking for new ways to build my skills and as such have commenced my MBA. At my best I am eager to learn and will choose the road less travelled. I have the initiative to get started and the stamina to persevere. I am most passionate when I am challenged in sales, design and marketing, inquisitive and willing to learn from those with greater experience than me.

More than a tool, reflective writing is a state of mind that invites the author to work towards a better exposition of his ideas. The attention to reflection is the key to successful encounter either big or small problems within the written text, allowing the author to rethink and discover a rhetorical solution for it. The process, regularly used, builds inside the author a need that can only be satisfied by its application, I would add, in almost everything he or she writes. Once regularly used, it transforms itself also into a learning tool, by creating the attraction of opening new horizons for every single piece of the work at hand. This action can and must be projected to other projects as Sandra L. Giles pointed out in “What Were You

Psychologists say that babies recognise themselves in a mirror reflection when they are 8 months, but for a girl the mirror means a lot of things. In their childhood girls look themselves into a mirror to see how they resemble their mothers, yet in their teenagehood they expect to find their personalities, but finally in their adulthood they look backwards in their history to see what they have become.

I had to realize that my hair was not the shimmering rays of the sun,

“I’m sorry, Molly, but I can’t understand you”, “Can you repeat that for me? “I’m sorry, what?” “It's not _______ it’s ________”. These were the responses that I heard most often while I was learning to speak. When I was younger, I had a hard time communicating. No one could understand what I was saying and I was told that I frequently sounded like I was in a tunnel. These responses were very frustrating as I was learning to speak. I knew what I was trying to say and I was baffled why other people could not understand. My parents were actively trying to find a solution to help me speak more clearly. When my preschool recommended to my parents that I should do speech through Minnetonka schools, my parents decided that I should give it a try.
