My areas for growth

Balances internal resources effectivelyMotivated by making community/world impactMaintains effective work life balance

In the past, I struggled with self-confidence especially in the area of making my voice heard. I knew I had to fix that. I thereafter went out of my way to take every opportunity to get in from of a group and talk. I wound up teaching college classes in part so that I would have the experience of talking and lecturing to students on a regular basis. Since then, I am much more comfortable and am pleasantly surprised when I am told how naturally speaking publicly seems to come to me.
