my true colors personality assessment: gold. i'm a gold through and through: consistent, goal-oriented, traditional, realistic, prepared, dependable, loyal, responsible & having leadership ability. and i really do believe that work comes before play. i'm the type person that literally gets joy out of planning every hour of every day. i like structure, i like creating tangible goals, and i like planning my schedule to best utilize my time to achieve what i need to get done.
but the thing i am slowly realizing is that i can't always be so focused on the future that i forget to enjoy the present. and also, i have to learn that not everything is about me and what i want or what i think i need.
because i am getting so passionate about exploring student affairs, i was excited for wrcsad for weeks. but i had some big events going on in SLO the night before that really meant a lot to some of the people i care about the most. so, i reevaluated everything and decided to make some sacrifices. i stayed in SLO for the event and drove to LA at 11pm. i didn't get in until 2am and i woke up at 6am to make it in time for wrcsad.
this was just one of those life experiences that made me reevaluate what is important to me and i'm sure i'll be making decisions about balancing my personal and professional worlds for the rest of life.
