16A

Assignment 16A – Secret Sauce

Passion- When I find something that interests me its easy for me to get fully involved in it. Sometimes this can get me into trouble but it is usually beneficial to my life.

Relatability- Being able to put myself in someone else’s position has already been a huge benefit in life, but I believe it is a vital aspect to grasp for any entrepreneur.

Attitude- One of my strong suits is my attitude. I feel like I can always keep my attitude in check and not let it affect the rest of my day.

Problem solving- I never like to leave a task unfinished, or start something without having a solution in idea. Coming up with strategies and methods is something I’ve always felt good at.

Respect- Along with my attitude, I’ve always been taught respectful behavior and have made it a point to continue it. A good attitude and respect can help take you far.

All interviewees were simply asked what skills or abilities they see in me that will be beneficial towards business and life in general.

Jessica (Friend)
“Your drive is something that I’ve always noticed, the way you are able to motivate yourself through anything is great, and shows you can do whatever you’re passionate about”

Kyle (Roommate)
“I always notice that you always have a ton going on at once, and you never fail to complete it all. When you have 5 things going on at once it seems like you’re good at tackling multiple things at once”

Daniel (Roommate)
“You’re definitely the most flexible person I know, in a good way. The way you can seem to fit so many things shows your ability to adapt to changes and still make it all happen”

Mark (Friend)
“I’ve always thought you were a confident person, whether it was golf, school, or your social life it always seems like you are comfortable wherever you are.

Wade (Boss)
“Its great having you around because you can really help out a crew. When you’re on a job it always seems organized and efficient, no matter what that calls for you to do.”


Through talking to close peers and colleagues I was able to find out some other skills I have that I never noticed, as well as assurance for some of the ones I mentioned. This exercised is great and pointed out some strengths I can utilize for the rest of this class.

  1. That is cool to see that your friends thought so highly of you- they notice how hard you work to make sure you get things done and that you do them well. I know that for me it felt reassuring to hear from my close friends what they thought my strengths were and how I handled situations. It really encourages me to continue to work hard and get things done.
