16A - What's Your Secret Sauce?

Why I think my Human Capital is Unique:

·      Thought Process: I think the way in which I process and analyze situations and ideas that are presented to me is incredibly interesting. Initially there’s just so much going through my head and different ideas that stem off what’s presented to me and it’s funny to see how jumbled up it can get if I’m not patient because when I try to talk immediately about those ideas or topics my train of thought is seemingly all over the place however to me it makes perfect sense. This might sound like a really annoying habit, however, when I do take the time to think about what’s presented to me I end up thinking of perspectives that many people would have passed up.

·      Attitude: I find myself being incredibly positive in even the direst situations when many, if not all, of my friends would be convinced to give up.

·      Communication: I have a really good ability to communicate with people and come to agreements. I’m great at making sure that those I’m in communication with will agree with what I have to say or finding a way to come to a compromise.

·      Goofy: In a lot of situations I’m a very goofy kid. I’m very lighthearted and I like to make light of situations when it’s applicable. I try not to see the negative in things and I try to make all of my friends laugh whenever I’m with them.

·      Perseverance: I do anything in my ability to make sure I always succeed in situations that are presented to me no matter what it is. My Cross Country team in high school was a joke my freshman year and with my teammates we trained as hard as possible and ended up winning a state championship my senior year of high school. Ever since I was young I always wanted to go to UF and I made sure throughout my life I set myself up to be in a good position to get admitted and now I am here.

Reflection: 

I think that a lot of what I said matches up with what my interviewees have said. I really liked this whole process because it really showed me that I am in touch with myself to some extent. A lot of what my interviewees said were things that I also focused upon and I don't think it's necessary for me to update my initial words in Part 1.
