My Personal Identity
I am who I am because of my parents’ influence on my life. Their strengths and weaknesses as human beings have profoundly impacted my personality and my world view in a variety of ways.
With all three of my parents exhibiting a passion for travel and adventure, I could hardly help but become a more curious and open-minded person. Throughout the past eighteen years I have had the privilege of moving with my step-dad to California, Maine, Hawaii, and Washington; following my mom around the country to New York, Vermont, New Hampshire, Massachusetts, Maui, and Arizona; and exploring cenotes, ruins, little-known islands, and destitute villages with my dad in Mexico. All of this adventure has left me unafraid to try anything at least once—to both my benefit and my detriment.
My parents also influenced my personality through their idiosyncrasies. Each of my parents is a perfectionist at heart, and therefore I too, have those same perfectionist tendencies. Whether it is my mom’s obsession that there never be any clutter or dirt in the house, my step-dad’s zeal for following rules and regulations, or my dad’s goal of keeping up perfect appearances, all can be seen, at least from time to time, in my character.
The biggest way in which my parents have influenced who I am and the way I see the world is through the way they love. I know my mom loves me, but she doesn’t know how to sustain a meaningful conversation, or understand the importance of the human
Currently, I am in the process of not only becoming comfortable in my identity, a black queer woman, but, also attempting to find solace in my identity as well. Something that all women, especially black queer women, should achieve in their lifetime. It is that dream that inspires me to travel to experience other cultures and to unite with women from various cultures across the black diaspora. Throughout many cultures, women’s identities are defined by their male counterparts and the labor they provide to them. Therefore, a major goal of mine is to create a space where women are able to exist outside the scope of their relationships with men and live uninhibitedly to become their best selves. That is why I find it pertinent to travel not only
With given a choice of what to write this paper, I could not get past the subtle nature of who we are as God’s creations. This fundamental truth of our identity is simplified with the truth of our identity in Jesus. We are created in God’s image with a purpose here on earth to display all of God’s greatness, His beauty, and to reveal all of His character aspects. Best of all, we are completely dependent on God. This new enlightenment of my identity in Christ as God’s creation will allow me to help people around the world become one with Christ by revealing the truth of their identity.
The main focus of this paper will be a Profession Identity Statement, where I will state my experiences and areas of interests. The Professional Identity Statement is important for those who are graduating with a Bachelor’s Degree because it allows the student to adequately articulate oneself when discussing future career or graduate school goals. The Statement also allows students to reflect and understand their own goals, so they are able to answer questions about their plans after graduation and have an idea of what one would like to do. It is important to have some sort of understanding of the direction an individual would like to go in after graduation or else it could lead to a delay in possible opportunities. My Professional Identity
There are two people that have significantly impacted my life, my parents. From the warmth of a hug to the sternness of a talk they have always been there. The softness of there hands or not so soft hands when I needed a hand to either get off the ground, or to cross the streets. The care in there eyes when I needed a band-aid, or when I was sick, or sad. The goodnight kiss and hug they give me before going to bed. The protection I felt when I was scared or when there was conflict. The taste of a good home cooked meal. Most of all the smell of my mom and dads perfume and cologne, why does it still smell so good!
My parents constantly mold my life. I can proudly say that my parents shape me to be a better gentleman, and to be a better citizen of the world. Even as a child, my parents have guided me to change my morals and see the world in a different light. I am very grateful for a chance to correct the self-centered morals everyone has when they are a child. Some people do not have amazing mentors to model what they should do and what they should not do.
Starting from the very beginning, my mom and dad. There is this stereotype about teens that they do not like there parents. I am the total opposite, I wanted to be around my parents all the time. People close to me have always said that I look just like mom, which is true. When I was young my mother and I were very close. As I grew up, my dad and I grew to be best friends. I get my looks from my mother and I get everything else from my dad. The way I act, work, talk and, handle life is all because my father. My father, Kip, he gets theses same factors form his mom and dad. It runs through the Chambers family tree and I plan to pass
Barbara is a female whose age, sex/gender, race/ethnicity, relationship status, student/employment status, living situation, environmental context are all unknown.
Growing up, my parents were my environment. They made sure I made good decisions and tried my best, just as parents are supposed to do. Even though my mother taught me many important lessons, I’d have to say that my father showed me how to handle fear, and that has been the lesson that has shaped me the most in my life.
My purpose is to show my individuality and to express myself. This is for others including myself, to see and to remind us that our identity is very complex.
It is said, that our parents right or wrong conduct shape our lives and we may become good or bad. The habits that eventually becomes part of our daily lives start in our infancy which may us express ourselves within our world. This can be said of many people growing up. I am no exception for I am the person I am today though in large part because of my mother and father. Growing up and even still today, I thought of the way of my parents thinking: there was nothing either could do. It was as if my parents where magical for any problem that would come up, meaning a broken toy being fixed by my father or my mother making strawberry milk. However at this rather impressionable age I did begin to notice certain habits exhibited by my dear
Everybody has an identity, it makes them individual and unique, and it defines who you are as a person. This project about my identity showed me what makes me unique. I would have never known how much my friends mean to me or how my identities connect with each other. I have three identities that make me who I am, cultural, personal, and social. A specific quality that covers my cultural identity is being Czechoslovakian. Both sides of my family have at least a part of Czech in them. My great-grandparents are from Czech Republic and my grandpa was the first generation in America, he was born in Ohio. This is very important because I have always identified as Czech and it is a big part of me, as I am so interested in ancestry. For my personal identity, the biggest part is my personality, being loud and outgoing, has always been important to me. The reason being, it is how people view me. A lot of people know me as the loud person or the person who talks a lot. That is meaningful to me considering I like people to view me in a certain way The last identity, social, is one of the most important to me because it involves my friends, and through this project, I learned how vital they really are to my social identity. I realized that I have a good amount of friends in this project. It is nice to have people as a support system and to relate with. These qualities show that I value being loud and outgoing. It also says that I value my family and they are a big part of life. The last one, social, ties in with the first one because it shows I am outgoing and friendly.
I was born _name__ on _date__ in _place__. I am a son, brother, uncle, nephew, cousin, and friend. I was desperately shy as a small child, but grew out of it. My teen years were happy times sports, friends, summers spent in __place_. It all helped shape me into who I am today. My interests are many. I have always enjoyed reading about history and follow the history channel faithfully. I love music. It's been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I find it calming when life gets rocky.
My parents as well as my extended family have been crucial in providing the foundation for my beliefs, attitudes and values. I grew up
Third, my parents’ parenting style influenced strongly what I am now. They had democratic parenting style. Therefore, I could discuss with my parents even something which they did not want me to do. Also, they set some reasonable rules which I should follow, and whenever they made rules they explained me why they made such rules. They advised me when I was depressed; however, they have never forced me what to do. Throughout my experience with my parents, I could understand the importance of independence and taking responsibility of my choice. Also, because they did not force their opinions, I could develop my own identity without many conflicts.
I have a wide range of skills and knowledge that I have acquired throughout my personal and professional life. I can communicate with different types of people regardless of age, race or class. I have accessed a huge range of courses that have enabled me to develop interpersonal skills including negotiation and dealing with different types of people and personalities. I also have the knowledge, drive and enthusiasm to work alone when required as I am self-motivated and can meet targets and deadlines. I believe that challenges are best met positively by developing and improving knowledge and skills and through professional reflective dialogue that leads to change. I am very hard-working and reliable. I work well under pressure achieving a high standard of work. I have practical and organisational skills and I can find solutions to problems and face challenges confidently.
