6. The first quality from my affirmation is hard-working. A specific experience in my life when I demonstrated that quality was during my senior year of high school. I always stayed focused on my classwork, stayed after class to finish up my essays instead of go home, be of assistance to my teachers and regulate the after-school activities. It was all about school the majority of my time.

The second quality from my affirmation is determined. A specific experience in my life when I demonstrated that quality was during my senior year of high school. In my school we had the Levie Awards, which was like talent show and I was the manager and host. Even though a lot of people had doubts that it would not be good and wouldn’t finish, I pushed my self during lunch, breaks and after school to make this unforgettable.

The third quality from my affirmation is independent. A specific experience in my life when I demonstrated that quality was during my senior year of high school. Throughout high school I never relied on anyone to help me succeed and achieve my diploma but myself. Everything I did, I did it by myself with little to no help. If anything, I was the one my friends looked for when they needed help with their work.

4. After analyzing my time I realized that I balance the urgent and important with the not urgent and not important. The activities in Quadrant 2 only apply for this week due to midterms. Therefore, I spend most of my time in Quadrants 1 & 4. The fact that the hours of quadrant 1 and 4 could add up to a whole day potentially makes me realize that these are the 2 Quadrants I take the time to consider throughout the day. If I continue to use my time this way, I feel I could reach my goals and dreams. I never want to be consumed by work and school to the point where I lose out on my fun of what life could bring me. In fact, I don’t feel it is the right time to take purposeful actions such as towards my career at this point. I have to feel I can manage my time with school and jump starting internships and jobs towards my career and even clubs before I can take purposeful actions. But, at the time I am at now I feel the best thing to do would be to focus on how much time I would need to have to greatly apply effort in school and then broaden myself with the opportunities Baruch has to offer.
