After taking the “Leading the Life You Want Assessment” I received the score of a 70 out of 90, which I felt answered accurately to my current state of mind and future. My score while only a few point above the average was not that surprising, since I have held a leadership role a few times before. Nevertheless, I wasn’t expecting my score to be all that high either, due to my ability to psych myself out in regards to anything that involves talking in public or handing out roles to individuals. It seemed my score closely resembles that of Bruce Springsteen, which I found quite interesting as he is a well-known artist who has no trouble singing and preforming in public, unlike myself. My strongest area of leadership skillsets was in Be Real,
The “new” leadership driver self-assessment tool was mostly accurate in evaluating my leadership style. I found that the overall scores in the four categories reflected my strengths. The tool also pinpointed specific points regarding my leadership abilities.

I agree to the final result of the three assessments. I know that there are no right or wrong answers but I would like to increase my self- awareness. The results will help me to improve my behavior and develop leadership skills. My strongest dimensions are agreeableness, adjustment, and conscientiousness.

Being a young adult requires a lot of independence, however individuals that fit into this category still have many needs. Some of those needs are friends, family and employment. Friends are an important part of being a young adult because they help deal with every day stress and difficulties (Buote,2007, p. 666) and having a social life is important for creating a healthy balance between work and other everyday tasks so one does not become overwhelmed (Buote,2007, 665). I personally view my friends as one of the best forms of emotional support because I know that whenever I am upset or have something on my mind, I can talk to them and I almost always feel more content afterwards which allows me to move past my troubles. It is important
Everyone has the vision of the good life but how many have sat down to plan it out? How I envision the good life, for myself, is by bettering relationships with my family and friends, creating a relationship with God I've lost years ago, have a career that helps me support my future family and myself, and lastly, have a relationship that will survive no matter what life gives us or God. I plan on trying to start my journey to the good life during my next four years at OBU.
After taking the assortment of Jobzology assessments I was able to get results that painted a clear picture of my values and interests in different situations and in life. Specifically, for values, my highest result was recognition, closely followed by achievement. In their descriptions, recognition is explained as a person that appreciates having the opportunity to advance in a job, likes having other people look up to them, and need to have the potential to lead others. With this came career examples of a Journalist, Business Executive, Software Engineer, and Lawyer. Personally, I would undoubtedly agree that I am the person the recognition definition defines me to be. Whether it be in sports and helping to lead the team by deciding what workouts to do or in a classroom leading a group project, I love the responsibility and having people look up to me for advice. One reason why I have openly taken on responsibility, specifically on the track team, is because it frustrates me how if there is no true leadership, everyone is so indicive. With this, I have learned that by making strong and confident decisions, people will look up to me and then I will have the potential to lead others. On top of that, as far as career examples go, having the suggestion of a Business Executive affirmed a desire I already had to get to the point of assisting in leadership of a company by being focused on advancing my job, which will giving me more potential to lead others. However, I do not see
“To succeed in life, you need three things: a backbone, a wishbone, and a funny bone” (McEntire). Quotes like these help you step back and evaluate yourself and your life to see if yours fits. I know that I did that myself when I thought about it. You also have to break them down to see what they really mean. When you break them down, you can really see what each piece means so hopefully you can understand.
