3/18: PESTEL Analysis

 The Political, Economic, Social, Technological, Environmental and Legal forces in America, make it very easy to be successful in our world. The USA is a powerhouse and the english language is dominant throughout the world. Learning in class today about some of the struggles other countries face in regards to success due to recognition and resources it is understandable why some have limited capabilities. 

I am thankful to be a citizen of the United States. The strength of my passport allows me to travel freely to most places. I have had an incredible experience abroad set up through my education system and the technology to guide me smoothly throughout the experience.

I hope to do well with this privilege and hope to use this blog as a reminder when I'm older to remember this perspective/ feeling I have right now.

 I am currently traveling with a group of 7 guys and we don't always get along. When planning our spring break there was a lot of disagreeing. That being said, we learned how to navigate it quite well. Rather than stepping on everyones toes, we took a step back and asked everyone what the most important part of the trip was. In a snake order each person got to plan one thing until all our days were filled. Doing it this way we felt everyone was able to get their fare share of input and a good mix of interests making it a very unique trip. We even had point son. the trip planned where we'd split up briefly to do our own things before coming back together at a final destination. I am very pleased with our communication skills throughout the process and it has forever altered the  way we approach disagreements like this in the future again.

While I have had friends who put hundreds of hours and applied to hundreds of positions, I found intense grind sessions to be a more effective approach in my internship process. Consistency was key in my success. I found a job working at WellsFargo in Charolette NC, through targeting my interests staying real/ honest with myself, and by positioning myself to the employers as someone who wants to learn and is open to criticism. I want to reflect the way I handled the internship process in the other big rocks of my day to day life. It taught me a lot about what I am capable of when organized and determined.
