MYF- Questions to Evaluate Yourself
“Your Goals and Values”
1. What aspects of your high school years have you enjoyed most? Have you missed out on anything? If you could live this period over again, would you do anything differently?
The most valuable aspects of high school to me have been my time spent on my XC and Spring Track teams as well as participating in the musical. Immersion in these activities has taught me a lot about the camaraderie of social activities and more than anything else has prepared me for what I largely anticipate college life to be like. If I have missed any opportunities in high school, they would probably simply be not getting involved in activities earlier. Especially in my freshmen year, I think I was too timid to join clubs and sports, and even in the things I did participate in, I did not apply myself fully. If I could relive this period, I would’ve exerted the same amount of effort that I do now into activities such as my running seasons and the performing arts.
2. What values are most important to you? What do you care most about? What concerns occupy most of your energy, efforts and thoughts?
I believe that the most important value that anyone can have is simply a true passion for what they do and an admiration for those that do the same. I’ve come to realize that people, me included, can spend too much time wrapped up in the ideals of others. If you don’t like what you’re doing, you should find something different as opposed to conforming to that idea simply to please someone who believes in it more then you. Dedication should come from passion as opposed to obligation. That being said, I cannot pretend that I am completely committed to this rule. My concerns, especially in school, fall into primarily being worried that I am not appreciated for what I do. As such, I strive to perform in ways that will give me recognition with those that I want to respect me, and as such I can achieve
