When I consider this question I really kind of struggle. It is not easy to recognize this all of the time if you aren\u2019t focused on it. I believe I am best at staying motivated and dedicated to tasks. I also tend to be empathetic and personable and this is beneficial when working with people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What do I value? Values are at the core of each of us and it is what we hold onto. I first really value my family. They support me in every situation of life, and they are who I go too in all things. Another thing I really value is my faith. Additionally, I value humbleness and consistency. In all aspects of life, it is my goal to be consistent with whoever I meet and to possess a humble attitude.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>How did I get here? The reason I am where I am is largely due to my family and faith. My parents, grandparents, and friends have a huge part in who I am today. They taught me and brought me up to be the man I am today, and I love them for that. We are a reflection of our upbringing and the people we surround ourselves with, therefore I am who I am because of them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u00a0Where am I going? As I look ahead there are many unknowns. We don\u2019t always know what will happen next, but at this point, I plan to graduate school in two weeks and then take my first long term job. Beyond that, I really do not know what will come next. I think what I have done in the past has prepared me for what is to come and I will just keep stepping through whatever doors open.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What am I good at?
