Defining Moments

How I responded to discouragement

  • THE NOISE

    Messages from Myself:

    I am very self-conscious about my inability to grasp mathematical information quickly. My greatest fear is that this will impede my ability to help people connect and find their passion.

  • How I responded:

    Throughout my experiences, I have learned that this is an unfounded fear. Though I am not what most would consider analytical, I am good at communicating and making people feel at ease. My talent for communicating with people effectively has helped me connect people of all personality types and with all sorts of abilities to the right projects and paths.
