I'm pretty good at helping people when I see they need help. Whether they just need a smile or a hug or someone to take their trash out I see when they need a friend. That consideration sets me apart from others because not everyone thinks the way I do or sees people how I see them. My dad is amazing at seeing others in a loving way and I try to see people how he does. Everyone has something beautiful to offer and I try to find it. I love loving people and helping them when and where I can.
2. Why do you think General Norman Schwarzkopf felt that character is more important than strategy?
Without character you are nobody. It doesn't matter how smart or intelligent you are if you have no personality. I most enjoy people who have some sort of interesting characteristic, good or bad, because they hold more interest to me. Why would I listen to someone who has a bland personality. It's kind of like the 'work horse' or the 'show horse'. The work horses have gumption and think and know how to get things done while the show horses only know how to stare and look nice. The work horses are much more practical and capable. This kind of doesn't make sense but in my mind it does! I'd rather be a work horse with character than a show horse with nothing.
3. In your BYUSA assignment, what have you chosen as your “hedgehog,” or the thing(s) that you will do better than anyone else?
I want to be "most helpful and kind to everyone"! haha in high school I was voted most friendly and I would still love to be the best at that but I want my hedgehog quality to be kind and helpful. I think I'm well on my way to be this person but I still have a lot to work on.
