Self Reflection Paper

A bit surreal today as I sit down and write my first paper in almost 20 years. I’ve spent the last 10 years trying to be very concise in my communication, to the point and easy to skim the important facts to ensure what I need to get across will be read. The fact that I am having some emotional response to the stress related to routinely writing papers that ‘feel long’ is just a great example of some of what I learned from my MBTI/Firo B results.

In this paper I plan to briefly review what happened during the counseling demonstration. Next, I will discuss two basic counseling skills that I believe I used well, and one that I struggled with. Finally, I will discuss the next steps I will take in order to improve my counseling skills.

The clocks at LIH appeared to be online and communicating to the WDM. I began my check to start data collection that is when I realized the clocks are not operating normally. I tried to reboot, initialize, and test both clocks though it appeared the clocks were in the process of successfully completing the task, it failed. Within the last two hours, I managed to get both clocks to complete a data collection successfully. I contacted Kari, LIH Coordination Center and request to have a TSO swipe their badge on both clocks located at the Checkpoint and Break Room, respectively.

did not fare as well as I expected on my portfolio. I enjoyed this class immensely too, including my professor, Dr. Susan DeLuke. I learned a great deal during the course as well as after the course from Dr. DeLuke, with the multiple homework assignments, and papers, and achieved very good grades under her guidance. However, applying it to the portfolio was challenging. It was a great deal to absorb, retain and get accurate in a short amount of time and I have a tendency to let tasks likes these overwhelm me. I know I could have performed better on my portfolio now. I went from an A in this class to a C+ because of my final portfolio. I thought I did well on it, and I did not. It was very disappointing results for both the student and Professor

This semester in English 1302 my perspective on writing has immensely changed. In the previous semester I struggled and nearly passed by a hair because I did not clearly understand the objectives that were given. In this semester, my mistakes had to be fixed. Although it was a process, I finally got around to clearly understanding what the objectives were for English 1302 and how to apply them to my papers for this course.

In what ways are the data gathered from others (i.e. the data that serve as the basis of your Reflected Best Self Portrait) similar or different from your own perceptions of your best self?

I wonder if everyone, despite their varying backgrounds from one another, has experienced “imposter syndrome” at some point in their life. There are numerous ways in which one can feel out of place, as I can firmly attest to. I feel like an outsider all of the time. Dating back as far as my early childhood, my personality and my interpretation of my personality, has lead me to believe that something is very wrong with me. Why am I so different from the outgoing and energetic people I see in movies and even in my everyday life? Why are there so many misconceptions about people like me, and why am I starting to actually believe that they are true? I can recall many experiences in my life in which I have felt inadequate compared to my

It is amazing what you can achieve if you believe that you will be successful; I found this statement to be true pertaining to myself over the process of these past few months. And that more than ever, if you really want to do something you’ll go ahead and do it. Motivation is self induced and drive is something that will come naturally when you’re doing the things that you love.

As a student, I have always been very dedicated in school. I like to be an honor roll student. I am not comfortable if I get a grade below eighty. I give my best to succeed in school. If I want something I fight for it until I obtain what I want. I try to do all my work on school so I won’t have homework and be more concentrated in it. I’ve always been the student

I have gone through various phases in my life not realizing how my behavior could have been affecting others. I never paid attention to my leadership skills. Even though my personal assessment resulted in me being a guardian in the Kiersy Temperament Sorter (kiersy, n.d.), I never seen the leadership skills I possess. In my years of experience, I have found myself being more optimistic in business and personal relationships. I may fall into the category of Theory Y with characteristics of Likert’s participative leadership style, as well as a servant leader. Being a servant leader may compliment my participative leadership style described in Donald Clark’s Survey of Leadership Style (Clark, n.d.) in a sense of me being a student that become an instructor; I understand what it takes because I have been the learner before the instructor.

I am now approaching the conclusion of my college career and starting to adjust to work life. This is a period of self-reflection and an attempt to put everything I learned into perspective. During this period of my life, I have been constantly thinking and contemplating my future. I feel very anxious yet nervous during this time while I am adjusting to this new stage of my life. When I was in High school my life was very structured, because I could be very dependent on peoples help and I obviously still lived with my family. When I went to college, I had to break away from that feeling of dependency and start the adjusting to adulthood. In college there was more responsibility and I started to become more independent. This was a crucial step in my life but choosing a career is going to be an even bigger step. It is a bigger step because; I have to start structuring my career goals and family goal for the future. At this moment all I can think about is my career, and how I can I keep improving myself for work life.

Over the course of six months, I have become proficient in using the general ledger, purchasing and sales orders/invoice menus in QAD. My process areas involve searching for invoices and purchase orders to solve inventory, AR, AP or fixed asset problems. I am often entering or updating projects in QAD and have learned how to investigate and solve account, sub-account and cost center problems. I have become proficient in how to find, change, upload and post journal entries and account balances within QAD.

I believe my testimony is best described in three parts: the beginning, the growth, and the maturity. My walk with Christ began when I was little. I was always raised in church and surrounded by a Christian environment. I got baptized at the age of 10 when my grandfather passed away, and during that time of grief, I decided to take more serious my walk with Christ. The reason I took that decision was because I saw how of a godly man my Grandfather was and I want to be like that. As a result of that, for the past 10 years, my relationship with God has grown every week. I think my faith grew stronger when my father had his first heart attack in May of 2012. I was fifteen and I did not know what was going on. I felt helpless and confused because nobody in my family would tell me what was going on. So, the only person I could rely on was God. Then, four years later in July of 2016, my faith grew even stronger when my father had his second heart attack. This time it was different because he was not in Texas, he was in Pennsylvania. So, this time feeling of helpless due to distance, I needed to rely on the Holy Spirit that my father was going to live. Therefore, I believe, going through these experiences made me get closer to God and grow as a Christian. Finally, I believe I have matured in my faith by serving God. For the past, seven years I have served in my church’s children ministry. I started at the age of 13 as a teacher assistant, then when I turned 18 I became a teacher of

I have lived in Unit 3879 for the past six months. For six months (possibly more because I have reason to believe the respondents followed me from my former residence in Maryland), the occupants (or their guests) of Unit 3893 and Unit 3881 are purposely being a private nuisance to me. They have been illegally monitoring and following me obsessively and in an intimidating manner. The respondents have also been shocking me with some form of technology, in a way that I deem tortious, offensive and demeaning.

New Zealand is occasionally described as a “country of immigrants” mainly for the reason that most of the people who are living here came from a different place.(Jones 2008). Migrating to a different country is already a challenge, starting a business and managing people in diverse cultures would be much more. It is everyone’s dream to be an entrepreneur. Success stories like Bill Gallagher in the 1930s where he got an idea from watching his horse scratching itself from the family car and thus becoming the foundation of Gallagher Power Fencing Company are always in our minds. (Derby 2017). The vision is to have the perfect business but in order to achieve this one has to face the tasks of having to manage people from diverse cultural backgrounds.
