RUNNING HEAD: I like me, but I’d like to change this about me

I like me, but I’d like to change this about me

My story about what I would like to change

Hannah Michelle Childers

Northwest Vista College

I like me, but I’d like to change this about me As the title states, I like who I am, but there are a few things that I would like to change about myself. For example, I really like how compassionate and kind I can be, although I usually let people walk all over me and use me to their advantage for the fear of not having any friends. I’m now working on that in the sense that I’m trying to put myself in positions where I can stand up for myself. For example, I’m going to go to the student access office because a guy there suggested that I change my degree because the one I current have a degree plan for is math intensive. I’m not very good at math honestly. I feel like he is dumbing me down because the one he picked has less math. What if I want to pursue that degree because of the challenges it will bring, I strive on challenges. So what if it is math intensive, just because I’m not good at math does not mean that I cannot do it. After I tell him that I will feel so much better and I wouldn’t have let him push me around or give me an “easier” path to take. I also like the fact that I don’t judge people, because so many people in this lifetime are constantly judging one another, although I do tend to not like some things about people. An example of that is I absolutely do not like people that cuss, it shows a low intelligence as well, not always though, but they are filler words, I mean you can insult someone without using them if you had an extensive vocabulary and got creative with the words you are using. I like the fact that I am intelligent, but I do not like that I can’t get my

    Another skill that can be altered is my ability to work in groups if needed. I am a self starter and prefer to work alone on projects but I am more than capable of working with others on big projects. I am opinionated especially when it comes to a group project where my job may be on the line. All in all there are many skills that could be changed and or altered depending on the professional career direction that I consider to go in.…

    Making a commitment to change is more than just saying "I want to be better at communicating my feelings." It involves changing how you think of yourself, and investing the time and energy to create the change you seek. We must realize that there will be setbacks, but we cannot let them derail our resolution to change (Woods, 2007). According to Morris Rosenberg (1979), a psychologist who has studied self-concept extensively, says that most humans tend to resist change, and that we also seek esteem or a positive view of ourselves. If you realize that you may struggle with change, and accept it, then you will be more prepared for the tension that may accompany personal…

    "Night" by Elie Wiesel

    There is a very thin line between the person who you were and the person that you are right now. As humans, we experience millions of events that can affect and change our perspective on aspects throughout the course of our lives. Similar to caterpillars, we cannot be innocent and childish forever. There is a time for everybody to transform into something beautiful, and everybody’s time is different. Change can be good or bad, but most importantly, change helps us grow and become the people we were meant to be. How are we supposed to mature and enjoy our lives if we cannot accept the differences that life presents? For many people, metamorphosing is difficult because sometimes it can be a challenge to let go of something that was always a part of ourselves, such as letting go of a teddy bear, or a blanket, but for other people, it can be almost instantaneous.…

    The Clusters Psy/230

    I am very outgoing and sometimes consider myself to be very talkative, even when people tell me to be quiet I cannot help it. That is just the type of person I am. I like to be heard even if I am the only person listening to myself my brain is always running and developing new thoughts and ideas to discuss with other people. Whenever I am with my friends they are constantly telling me to be quiet because I never stop talking I just do not like it to be quiet. I feel that I am the life of the party I also do this at work with my co-workers I just like to talk I feel I have a mouth to express myself and be heard. Openness to experience I feel is another that describes me well because along with always thinking and talking I an very curious to know a little about everything. I feel that I can learn about different things forever, and that I can always learn how to do something I already know a different more efficient way. Curiosity never hurt anyone I believe the world is full of many mysteries and we must unlock and discover them to learn what they are. I also find myself building thing without the instructions not because I do not need them, but because I am curious to see if I can create what I am building without them. Even if I do not know something on a subject I will sometimes act as if I do because I want to see how gullible people are, and I also know many facts about everything so it is easy to believe me. Using agreeableness I would consider myself to be ruthless and soft-hearted why, because I tend to be easygoing and am kind to people I know, but if I do not know you I am not going to be nice to you. Do not get me wrong though even with people I know I can turn on if they give me a good cause to snap on them. People who hitch for rides I…

    Finally, after all me going on about thing the last, and final thing that I can benefit for Rocky Mountain College in Billings, Montana is my life experiences. Sadly, though there really isn’t much to this part of my essay, I have been a sheltered child all throughout my life being on this Earth and just recently have I been taking steps outside of my sheltered zone and out into the real world, but technically speaking also that’s not entirely true. I have actually been many places and lived in many places, before I lived here in Worland, Wyoming, I lived in three different places, two being in the United States.

    Personal Ethics Statement

    • 414 Words

    My strength is being fair and responsible. I try to always give everyone a chance as long as they are doing what they are suppose to. I am very loyal and will always do what I say I am going to do. I believe that if we all acted in a responsible manner and follow the guidelines there would be social balance and everyone would have the chance for success. However with the belief that everybody has to do things my way and follow the rules, I can be a bit judgmental even though I am trying to help. While just simply having best of intentions I can create more problems for others because I want them to follow my method of doing things, which is my blind spot.…

    I only want to do things that I would be proud to put my name on; consequently, this means that I would rather take a little extra time to make something great rather than only good. On multiple occasions, I've found improvement areas through either testing or other people and instead of ignoring them or shrugging the opportunity off...

    Change Theory

    Change has never been one of my strong points; and today in some life areas is still very scary for me. Like most everyone else, I am comfortable with what is familiar, though in some cases the familiar is toxic. I may be aware that I need to make a change, but may stay stuck in the contemplation or even pre-contemplation stage for any large amount of time. I value the steadiness, the routines, and the certainty of knowing what’s next. I however, through education and personal experience understand that change is important; change brings growth. In that, I push myself. If I don’t like something about my life, I either have to do something about it, or quit complaining.…
