16A- What's Your Secret Sauce?

1)
-Composure: I think I'm someone who is extremely calm and composed in nearly every situation. I never really panic or freak out.
-Logic: I think that I am very logical and can often think of a good solution to a problem if I take the time to think about.
-Creativity: I have always been someone who is very creative in many aspects (music, art, etc.). this often translates to my life, and I am able to use it in a multitude of ways.
-Optimism: I always try to be optimistic and look at the bright side of things. No matter what goes wrong, I just think it will work out eventually in some way. This helps me get through a lot of problems or challenges that I face.
-Compassion: I think I genuinely care about other people and their well-being, so I always try to think about what I do before I do it to make sure I take other's feelings into account.

He says I am always reliable. He says I never back down from a challenge.

He says I am good under pressure. He also says I do not snap under stress.

He says I am creative. He also says I can think outside the box.

Reflection: Overall, Others see me similarly to how I see myself. My interviewees put emphasis on my creativity and composure under pressure which were two of the qualities I listed for myself. I think my interviewees were generally correct about me. I do not think I would make any changes in my original list.

  1. Hey Brandon, it's really great that you can stay calm under pressure! I work best under pressure as well, but I did not list that as a characteristic because it's not as prominent in me as other ones that I did list. Compassion and logic were characteristics that I listed for myself as well, but in different terms. It's really interesting to see how the same characteristic in two different people show up differently.

  2. Hey Brandon,
    I think that it is great that you can constantly stay composed under pressured and that you're never fazed. Also the fact that you're optimistic and creative will help you in the real world with real world problems. Finally I think the best thing is that your friends that did interview had many things in common in which you thought of yourself. Great Work!

  3. Hey Brandon,
    I think it's great that you were able to accurately assess yourself and your friends were able to confirm your assessments. I think that can make you confident in yourself if you know all of your greatest qualities, which is another trait you can add to that list. You have great qualities for a young, aspiring, entrepreneur. Good job!

  4. Hey Brandon, the ability to stay calm under pressure and to be optimistic are great qualities to go about a career and life. As commented above, it is really interesting how similar qualities manifest in people differently. I think your friends also did a very eloquent job of backing your points. Overall, good list, the people you chose to interview know you well.
