My Secret Sauce

So as for my human capital here are the 5 things that I think make me different:

1. Diplomatic personality.  I am a person who absolutely hates conflict and if there is a more rational way to solve an issue, then I will figure it out.  That is why I am able to get along with almost everyone and why I have such a diverse network of people.  Usually in my group of friends or family, I am the voice of reason that settles any argument, to the point they make jokes about me being a Buddhist monk in my past life hahaha.

2. Open-minded traveler. So lots of people can say they are open minded, but I have never met anyone as open-minded as myself.  I have had the blessing to travel all around the and immerse myself in the cultures.  There is a saying that a tourist sees what they want to see and a traveler sees the world for what it is.  My philosophy to traveling is to become like the locals and live like they do.  I've gone through Buddhist rituals, Muslim rituals, eaten zebra, etc... I mention those things because there are things that most people would not be open to because of their own beliefs. My mentality is that by my participation in differing beliefs doesn't mean I am disrespecting mine, rather I am learning to appreciate others' beliefs and gain a sense of knowledge.  That is why I am a very adaptable and easy going person.

3. Selfless.  Basically all my loved ones and those in need come before me.  I tend to go out of my way to help others in whatever way I can, and sometimes I am perceived as a pushover.  I never expect anything out of return, I do it purely for the other person.  I am a firm believer that whatever you do will come back to you in due time.  Sure sometimes I am taken advantage of, but it doesn't matter because at least I know I did the right thing and I learned from the situation.

4. Love to be challenged.  I am a very competitive person, especially with myself.  I'm not someone who likes to be idle for very long and I love to challenge myself in new things that I had never tried.  I always think that no matter how well I do, there will always be room for improvement and growth. Whether in school or in life, I am usually the one who embraces a challenge because the satisfaction of overcoming it is a lot greater than my fear of it.

5. I am an onion.  The longer you get to know me, the more layers of my personality you get to see.  Also depending on the people I hang out with, depends on what layers they get to see.  Some say that sounds like I am a hypocrite with my friends, but I don't think so; I am not lying to one group and not the other, its just that one group of friends has been able to peel off more of my layers than another. It all depends on your trust and comfort level with people.


So next I interview the 5 closest people to me: My mom and dad, my aunt, my best friend of 7 years, and my other best friend of 10 years.
*Some of them are in Spanish, but I included subtitles
*some of them I had to nudge to get a more detailed response
*sorry for my mother's long winded answer....she likes to brag....just like any other mom lol

MAKE SURE TO VIEW FULL SCREEN IN CASE SUBTITLES ARE TOO SMALL

I think compared to what my interviewers said, I can see that the diplomatic personality is something we said the same.  Also the fact that I embrace challenge is true.  I found it interesting how they mention spontaneity which I never really thought of.  They also mentioned I have a fighting spirit which I thought was interesting.  There is a difference in what they assessed for sure because like I said I am an onion, so there are only certain thing I allow some people to see of me.  I think others comments on you is what you are able to show them, it is way they can see and perceive from you, while you are able to assess the things about yourself they can't see.  I wouldn't make any corrections to my list but rather, take their comments and mine and make a new revamped list!

Thanks guys and make sure to comment down below!
