Personal Narrative: My Overall Performance Score

It is a game of inches played nearly everywhere by every age. From backyards to little league parks and professional stadiums, by tee-ball playing kindergartners to old-timer leagues, baseball is a game that is considered America’s pastime for a good reason. Baseball, and simply sports in general, help teach many important life lessons such as hard work, sportsmanship and dedication. These qualities, along with many other things, are necessary for success in today’s world. The sport of baseball is very popular in other countries as well, and for many of the youth in these countries, it represents a way out. A way out from the poverty and crime and a way to a better life here in America. Out of all of the opportunities afforded to me

My SAT scores aren’t the best because I lacked motivation to learn in high school and barely studied before taking the test. However, after graduating from high school, I stopped playing video games, which took a big part of my time, and motivated myself to become a life-long learner and improve every day. For example, during my first year at IU, I worked hard to be involved in campus organizations such as the Toastmasters Club and the Kelley Student Government while also working hard to get a 3.8 GPA. As a result of this effort, I got accepted into the Kelley School and the Business Honors Program. After transitioning from an average student in high school to a high achiever in college, I realized that any goal is achievable if one if willing

When I first started out this school year I was a totally different person than I am right now. The success profiler showed me the kind of person that I was, and also the strengths and weaknesses that I had as a person.

Tiara I also worked for a Results Only Manager, and it was not my best experience. The environment was fast-paced, and we were responsible for meeting the need while ensuring we did it adequately and with a smile on our face. However, due to the needs of the company, there came a time when we had to bid for new schedules. Although I ranked #9 out 92 workers, I lost my schedule. The company understood my situation, and they knew that I needed a particular schedule to accommodate my lifestyle as a military spouse, and unfortunately, I lost the schedule I needed. Needless to say, I had to quit my job. I was devastated because I worked hard to meet the goals of the company and I did it well for almost five years; however, the Results Only Managers

My score was 103. I am in the high-overall score type. I wasn't really surprised at my results because in the past I do get nervous, shaky, forgetful, and sweaty while speaking in public or around a group of peers that I am not familiar with. The best way to explain my results based on experience is that I am shy, I keep to myself, and I consider myself an introvert. I never know what the audience is thinking about me or my speech and that scares me a little. Something that would help boost my confidence is if I knew someone in the audience really well, for example a best friend or family member. Also if I was reading directly off of a sheet, it would help so that I didn't forget anything because I am so nervous. Although, I know that good

I strive to work smarter and harder to achieve success in the goals I set for myself, whether it be in school, sports, or extracurricular activities. In the month leading up to the beginning of high school, I watched my dog get hit by a car right in front of my house, and had my grandfather pass away. I am still to this day emotional about the events I experienced. As a freshman beginning high school, I kept to myself. I became too distraught to focus all of my attention on school. I realized that isolating myself was not the answer and that focusing my attention on school, after school activities, and creating friendships benefited more than just keeping to myself. An activity I soon learned to love was working as the Information Technology

The score I got for my emotional intelligence was a low emotional intelligence, which surprised me because I thought I was being genial with my answers. Apparently being nice and having morals isn’t the way to emotional intelligence. For example, one of the question states, “when I approach another person and try to strike up a conversation but the other person doesn’t respond,” which I thought that person doesn’t want to talk or he’s angry at something. I answer leave the person alone, which was the wrong answer. The “right” answer was to ask the person about his/her feelings, but when I’m angry the last thing I want is to be vex by another person. I don’t want to pry into other’s affairs, and so from my perspective and experience, I think

Throughout the semester, we have done many assignments that acted as assessments to help us in finding our specific learning pattern, personality type, areas where we excel and need to work on, all in order to help us plan accordingly and successfully on how each of us should approach future assignments in future courses for the rest of our university career. After doing so many assignments to help us determine our specific areas where we excel at and where we may need some work with, I believe I have found my caveat. The area where I believe I excel, would be in time management, and although I plan out my time well and realistically, I need to work on actually executing it and following through with the plan I make for myself.

My personal accomplishment has taught me a lot about myself and who I am as a person. It taught me how much strength I actually have within myself that I never in a million years thought I had. It was hundred times more difficult that I thought it was going to be going into it. This challenge that I feel that has been an important demonstration of a personal accomplishment is when I attended a student trooper program a couple of years ago.

My team spend one day per week work on our project at the client's workplace, and we have maintained high professional standards to contribute to the Techlauncher public image. I also had attended the Techlauncher showcase, and tried my best to network as much as I can.

I intend to greatly improve my performance for the second part of the semester for English 1101. A major piece of scholarly achievement is having the right attitude. If a person believe they can succeed they will succeed. When a person think them going to fail they are going to fail. The changes I will make to improve my performs is to know what the professor is looking for in a paper, take better notes, and improve my study

I designed the primary application interface and implemented it to the customer’s specifications within the first few weeks. This created a solid foundation from which the applications was fleshed out and completed.

I've always been told that there is someone else working harder than me, that no matter how hard that I could be working there is someone else out there working twice as hard. I used this saying in sports. I grew up in a family that always has to be the best and always have to win. Losing was not acceptable in our house. My big brother was an amazing athlete and a very good scholar. So the expectations that I had were very big to live up to. I lived up to the athlete one pretty well. Some say that I passed him as an athlete. When it comes to being a scholar he has me beat by a lot. My brother had a 4.0 and I average a “B” in all my classes beside physical education. I think school is very boring and the only reason why I like to go is

Throughout my life, I feel like I have been pretty successful. I have been able to accomplish some of my personal goals, while both being able to give back to my community and plan for my future. I hope that my with the success I have had already, will help me have an even more successful life in the future.

I have noticed that I started out very confident in the being of the year, and it slowly went downhill. I had really good self-esteem at the start of the year, I actually tried to succeed in school. I worked hard, played nice and fallowed the rules. To be honest in the first success profiler I tried because I actually cared about this class but I don’t anymore. It was fun at the being of the year but I stopped caring when the deans took my laptop away from me so I couldn’t do any work for the class anymore. I feel looked I’m looked down upon by everyone in this program just because I have different views than most people. I find it very funny how everyone cares about everyone but me. I ask for help and I’m ignored, it’s really cool. I was told
