Honesty I’ve been starring at this question for the last 20 minutes trying trying to answer the question “Who do you think you are.” To answer that question one must take a step back and think of our daily actions. I make at least one mistake on a daily bases, the hardest part about making a mistake in business, school, or personal life is knowing how to live, learn, and forget. When a person makes a mistakes they’re automatically going to be feel upset or annoyed about it. No person can make a mistake and not care at all. I think the real test is to know when to learn from the mistake and forget it ever happened. As I grow older I realize more about myself. If i was asked “Who do you think you are” last year or in a year from now, the answers would be totally different.
I grew up living in Brooklyn in the Syrian jewish community. On one hand living in a community can be extremely beneficial for obvious reasons but on the other hand it can be extremely difficult to figure out who you are because of the social pressures. Trends happen faster when kids are in school together and live near eachother in elementary and high school. The upside is you can really learn about yourslf in college because your finally free after living in a that “bubble.”
To conclude, I dont know who I am. Im a jewish kid from a small community going to school for the first time with Asians, african americans, and Christians. Im excited to learn about the real world but I also understand that the real world is tough. I make mistake everyday but Im learning how to grow from them. Hopefully after year
