One of my strong points is that I have a great ability to work in a team due to my collaborativeness. I have been in writers associations where I direct members to work together in managing a particular project who are motivated to come up with diverse and creative tasks for effectiveness. Being thorough and tenacious has also contributed to gain a lot from writing. When on a project I keep track of every small detail and understand the components to be able to vigorously advocate for the deadlines which I never miss despite my procrastination problem. Lastly, I have excellent writing skills which I have gained from my eight years of experience as a copywriter in various industries as well as my four years’ experience as a writer.
Weaknesses
One negative thing about me is that I can be too critical about myself which is a pattern that has been running throughout my career. Taking a moment to celebrate my achievements has helped me gain high self-esteem and appreciate others. Another weakness is the belief that I can solve a problem on my own. Although this is effective in some cases, I need assistance to solve problems that are beyond my ability. Procrastination is another issue which has created problems for me. Rushing to submit my assignments close to the deadline creates too much pressure that I can barely handle. I have started designing schedules to manage my daily activities and manage time.
First Experience Driving
I was 14 when my dad allowed me to take the wheel on the highway. It felt terrific yet scary to feel how much a little shaking on the wheel could cause turmoil in the car. I had no idea where the gears were or how many they were or where the accelerator, brake or clutch was. It took me about two hours to learn everything after which I started off at a speed of 80 km/hr which no one could imagine that of me. It was indeed an enjoyable experience that taught me the lesson, at times we barely know our capabilities but pushing ourselves beyond our extremes helps us achieve everything.
