I am perseverant, dedicated, and disciplined in both school and work. These qualities will help complete my bachelor program and obtain my MBA degree and be a great professional. They will also assist me to cope well with my friends and family members, help out others who may seem weak in their job and help me fulfill my goals.

I exert myself too much, and I want to be one of the best. Too much pressure paralyzes me, and I stay worrying. It’s always crucial to divide my work into small portions and tackle them one at a time. This method can actually reduce the amount of pressure exerted by the work, help me accomplish the tasks on time, and keep me off from stress. I learned to consider how certain traits or attributes might complement or might compete with others. Being perfect is always desirable but in real fact, its unattainable. I have realized that the desire for perfection limits one’s ability to learn and grow.

My qualities are; being reliable/dependable, give compliments, I'm flexible and adaptable. These I attribute to the fact that I am always ready to fulfill my obligations, will always follow through commitments and will always have consistent work performance for any particular change. I learned first to know whether certain traits (either initially seen as positive or negative) might coincide with or perhaps might conflict with your discovery of one's core values.

Being polite coincides with my core value of respect. Humility is always a key element to success. Though some people see it as a sign of inferiority, it’s the greatest method to win the hearts of the investors, suppliers and customers. I show consideration of others. Caring for my fellow coworkers and even managers will help me create a good professional relationship that will lead to effective communication in an organization, and hence achievement of the organizational goals and targets. Also, being responsible coincides with my core value of punctuality. With a sense of responsibility, I will always show up on time and put my best effort to complete tasks by the deadline. It will also keep me away from frustrating my work team or even my bosses, who can render me jobless due to lateness.
