Human Capital:
1. I speak two languages English and Spanish. This allows me to communicate with a large amount of people that I would not otherwise have the ability to communicate with.
2. I am extremely passionate about learning. I never settle with what I know and I am constantly trying to learn new things whether with food, fitness, school, or business.
3. I believe I have a lot of charisma. I know how to get a room of people all talking and interacting with one another. I believe I am very lively and can make others feel the same way.
4. I am very educated on nutrition and personal training. I can teach/help most people how to achieve their fitness goals.
5. I am extremely competitive and I never settle on anything in life. If I have my eyes set on a task I do whatever I can to the best of my abilities until the task is thoroughly complete.
5 Interviews:
Daniel: He believes I am a extremely hard worker, and are very competitive. He knows whenever I am put to do a task I never slack off and find short cuts on how to do it. Although sometimes he can be too competitive and let it get to him.
Zulima: She says how well I am able to speak both Spanish and English since I grew up speaking both languages. She says I am fluent in both.
Denise: She says since I was little I was always able to make people smile with my words. She said whenever there would be any group activities I would be the first person to start talking and getting everyone working while having fun.
Melissa: She agrees that I am very well educated on health and fitness. She says how much she appreciated me helping her on achieving her fitness goals last summer and because of the knowledge I gave her she was able to gain 5lbs of muscle.
Anthony: He agrees I am almost obsessed with learning. Ever since I started school I was always top of my class and getting straight A's. Outside of the classroom I was always looking up different subjects such as business, fitness, nutrition, etc. to expand my knowledge of different subjects.
Reflection
What people thought of me were quite aligned with what I thought of myself originally. I do agree with the one point Daniel made about me that I can get too competitive from time to time and it is something I am trying to work on. I do not really see any difference in the ways people described me and how I see myself. All in all I would not change anything that is in my list.
Hey David I really enjoyed reading your post. I think the five things that you believe separate you from others are really good. I like the first one the best: that you can speak both english and Spanish. Being bilingual in the crude world of business can be vital, especially in this day and age. The United States is more diverse than ever before. Now when you open a business, you have to account for all different nationalities and ethnicities. The fact that you are bilingual will help this process go a lot sooner, considering the amount of Spanish speaking people in the United States is rapidly increasing.
ReplyDeleteHey David,
ReplyDeleteAs CJ mentioned above, I think being able to speak both English and Spanish puts you at a great advantage especially in Florida where many people speak Spanish. Another one of your qualities that I think is very important in the business world is being able to learn and adapt. This day in age, everything is changing from one day to the next and it is extremely important that you are able to notice these changes and adapt to them.
