Who I Am


Who I Am

 

I am . . . driven.

Driven to learn, perform, compete, succeed.

Driven by coaches, parents, teachers, mentors.

As a younger person, my self-esteem was not very high.

I am driven to believe in myself.

 

I am . . . a leader.

A leader on the court, field, classroom, and home.

A leader of myself and others.

As a younger person, I was quiet, shy, and too reserved.

I had to learn how to lead.

 

I am . . .committed.

Committed to myself, my family, my church, my education.

Committed because I believe in being completely dedicated.

As a younger person, I learned the value of commitment from my hard-working parents.

I am committed to be the best I can be.

 

I am . . . unique.

Unique, different, distinct, special.

Unique because I am my own individual, not concerned with following others.

As a younger person, I was taught to be myself.

I am a unique person, proud of who I am.

 

I am . . . wholesome.

Wholesome in my behavior, beliefs, actions, words.

Wholesome because I have high standards.

As a younger person, I learned the importance of my Christian values.

Wholesome in every area of my life.

 

I am . . . me.

Driven, A Leader, Committed,  Unique, Wholesome.
