Life is Like Soccer

The Coaches
Like any other sport soccer has coaches. Without coaches playing the game would be hard, as no one would know about teamwork, the game rules, the lineup, and most importantly how to succeed and win. This section is dedicated to a few of the things that I have used to help me understand myself and how I use them to be successful in life. In other words, this page is dedicated to how I was coached towards the path of success.
MBTI Test
One of our class discussions gave us the option to take the MBTI test and read up on what we were. My MBTI is ESTP, however the S (sensory) can be interchanged with N (Intuition). This test was very helpful and showed me what type of person I am. This will help me when I am choosing my career after college, as well as helps me to understand myself more, why I make the choices that I make and what will help me in my life.
VIA Character Strength Survey
The VIA Character Strengths survey helped me to understand myself further by showing me my top five-character strengths. My top five were Fairness, Judgment, Curiosity, Social intelligence, and Teamwork. This has helped me to see my strengths and use them to my advantages. This has also shown my where my weaknesses are and what I need to work on or improve.

Learning German In Germany
My senior year in High School I went over to Germany by myself and stayed with my cousins best friend. The whole point of the trip was to learn German at the Carl Duisburg institute and practice it with my cousins best friends family, who did not speak English very well. This experience helped me to become more independent and learn in a new and challenging way. After this experience I not only improved my Germany, but I also made new friends and met a lot of new people who helped me out and showed me many new and different things. Going over to a different country where you don't speak the language very well is challenging, yet it is one of the best learning experiences one can have.
