26 - Celebrating Failure

1) Over the course of my graduating semester, I have spent a LOT of time working on my resume. I thought I was pretty proficient with Microsoft Word, but I encountered many small annoying problems with formatting, wording, and plenty of other things throughout my iterations of resumes.

2) While I was simply seeking out how to make a resume, I ended up learning a lot about Microsoft Office as a whole. The things I learned and retained will be extremely useful going forward professionally.

3) Failure often caused me mental distress and frustration, but I've begun to realize that if I keep trying, there is little I cannot overcome. This class has tested me at times to remain focus and steadfast in keeping up with assignments, but I have learned greater patience and awareness because of it. I am much better at scheduling time and organizing my priorities and tasks now.

  1. Hey Steven,
    I am glad to hear that one of your failures has become a strength ! I understand that having a great resume can be a crucial part of getting a job after college. It can be stressful and "mentally distressing" like you said but I'm sure the outcome will be worth the frustration. This class has certainly taught me patience as well as self-motivation.
