What's your secret sauce?
I think that my personality makes me unique. I have a very positive and upbeat personality. It is very rare to see me not in a good mood. I love talking to people and I'm always smiling.
I think something that makes me very unique is how I am able to relate to others. I try to think about how things make others feel. Sometimes it seems as if I can feel their pain. I am empathetic in the way that I can feel their pain even if I haven't been through the same thing.
Its common for my friends to refer to me as the "mom" of our group. This is because I tend to have motherly instincts. I want to take care of everyone and be sure that everyone is having fun. I tend to worry about others before me and put their needs first.
I think the way I look at the world is very unique, I always try to find the good in things and people. I try to look at everything in this world with a positive mindset and find the beauty that surrounds me.
I like to have everything I do planned out, if I go on a trip I make a million lists of the things I need, the things I need to do, and where we want to go. I am always trying to have things planned out and I think this makes me unique.
I interviewed one of my best friends Johnathan and he said that I am very caring and I am very organized, always planning trips and anything else we do. He said that no matter what I try to be understanding and help others.

I interviewed my friend Jared and he said that I was very organized and without me we wouldn't be able to go on trips. He also said that I am very positive and I am always smiling.

Thai said that I am a great planner, he has put emphasis on our trip that we took and how I planned out every detail while they were all wondering what we were going to do.

For the most part the things that my friends said were the same as what I said about myself. They emphasized more details and specifics of when I was helpful, or caring. Also, Jessica said that I am creative. I do like to paint and I like crafts, however, I never really think about this being something that makes me unique simply because I don't give myself credit for having any skills. It's nice to hear from your friends that they think you are indeed creative and talented. I think that it differed because I don't like to brag about being great at things and I don't give myself that credit. I do think that they were correct and I guess if I could correct my list I would add creative on there, because in some ways I really am.

Hi Kayla,
ReplyDeleteIt's great that your impression of yourself pretty directly lines up with the impression your friends have of you! It's cool that one of your friends even pointed out a trait that you don't even credit yourself with having. You seem to have a great grasp on who you are to other people, and that's awesome!

Kayla,
ReplyDeleteIt's great to have good self awareness like you do. It seems that you are very aware of your secret sauce because most of your friends said the same things. As you pointed out, it is a good wake up call to have a friend associate a skill with you that you didn't know you had.
Kayla,
ReplyDeleteI believe your positive and upbeat personality is the thing that will carry you throughout the rest of your life. This type of attitude will continuously attract good people in your life making the world so much smaller and giving you much more opportunities than you can even imagine. Also, organization was a common theme in the interviews and this is a very important skill that you can use in any field you are interested in.
Kayla,
ReplyDeleteI think that being helpful and caring are two great qualities to have. Having a friend that is helpful is very nice because they will always be there when you need them. I strive to be a helpful person for my friends, and judging from what your friends said, I think that you are succeeding in being a helpful person.
