My strengths and weaknesses
1. My strengths that will help me to obtain my BBA degree
- As a student, I always put my school work as No.1 priority
- I have never skipped a class unless I was terribly sick since I entered the college.
- I often feel exhausted or tired when I have to study after work
- I have difficulties to focus on study when I am next to my computer
- I easily get stressed out about school and work
- I have great acting power on doing things that I am interested in
- I have built a strong network around my community, work and school last 7 years living in new york which helped me to get two job offers currently
- I clearly know what makes me happy while working and living
- My problem has been finding a specific occupation that I would love to do. I am interested in travelling,interacting with people, and various subjects including arts, business ,etc. It can be problematic since it is not very specific.

3. My strengths that will help me to obtain my MBA degree

- Since I am working on my BBA, my course work will be related to the MBA courses which I am familiar with
- I need to get a huge amount of a student loan ( hopefully, my future employer can reimburse part of them )

I like how detailed and well-thought your plan is. Your objectives are well defined and I got a feeling that you know exactly were you are headed and were you will be in five years. I think it is great that you know what you like and what makes you happy, it's the strongest motivator, in my opinion, for your future success. With such a positive attitude, I'm sure you will be able to overcome many obstacles that you mention. Best of luck!
ReplyDeleteI think you have planned out your future objectives and action plan very well. I am sure you will be able to achieve all your objectives in your future. Best of luck for your future plans. Hope you can follow your action plan and become successful in what you want to be.
ReplyDeletethis is very detailed and structured. I know you'll be able to reach these goals. I definitely understand where you're coming from when you mentioned exhaustion. I too suffer from exhaustion, especially since i stay up late to try to fit things I couldn't do during the day due to school or work. Finding a job is hard, especially with how the economy is doing now, the key is to not give up and maintain positive and continue searching. Don't view them at weakness, but areas where you can improve. Since you know what they are sit down and think of a way you can fix them day by day.
