Reflection:

Throughout my life, I have encountered many trials and tribulations. These experiences continue to have a major impact on my perception in life and on the people around me. I grew up knowing that I could do anything that was within God’s will for my life. I knew I had a purpose very early in life and God revealed that he would push and encourage me through all situations that I would encounter.  Many aspects have had an impact or influence on my perceptions of leadership, but none more than my spirituality. 

My experiences shaped my perception of leadership in that, I feel that leadership or becoming a leader is an ongoing process. I have a deeper understanding that there are many types of leaders on many different levels. Leadership is not only having the ability to understand and walk in your own capabilities but, being able to help other's discover and walk in their capabilities as well. My perception of a leader is a person who not only knows who they are in this world but, can help others around them to discover who they are in this world.
