Work Ethic Personal Statement

Crohn’s disease is a chronic inflammatory bowel disease that causes an inflammation of the GI tract. The symptoms of this disease are mild to severe, and they commonly include varying degrees of abdominal pain, frequent diarrhea, fatigue, rectal bleeding, and unexplained weight loss. Crohn’s disease is a lifelong and progressive condition that leaves approximately seven-hundred thousand Americans without a cure. As disheartening as it is, it has proven my little sister to be the fighter of my family and has lead me to admire her for it. Her battle with her new health condition has shown me how to brave and optimistic in the most trying of situations.

I have been cursed with what is commonly known as the midwest work ethic. The thought of humbly putting in the work to get the job done right. That is the reason why I need the academy internship. I was born in Lincoln, Nebraska and have had an interest in invention all my life. I had originally wanted to become an aerospace engineer as a kid. It’s hard to find a middle schooler dead set on becoming a rocket scientist. Freshman year of highschool, to my parents surprise, I learned I wanted to become a filmmaker. After few years working on narrative shorts and commercial projects, I learned that my true love was in Cinematography. I am currently a sophomore in the Johnny Carson School of Theater and Film, which only accepts about 10-14 film

In our world, there are many illnesses and health problems, while some of them are curable others are not. Today I am going to speak about on disease specifically, Crohn’s. Many of you may have no idea what Crohn’s disease is. Crohn’s affects 780,000 Americans, my sister being one of them. Crohn’s disease is an inflammatory bowel disease, which causes symptoms such as; chronic diarrhea, weight loss, fever, abdominal pain, rectal bleeding, etc. This topic hits very close to home, when my sister was seventeen years old she was diagnosed with Crohn’s. I believe it is important topic since Crohn’s disease runs in my family and it is a disease not many know about. So today I am going to be talking about what Crohn’s actually is, how it affects a person, treatment options for them, and finally Crohn’s awareness. I hope that you, as my audience, find this topic interesting and become aware that there are numerous illnesses and diseases in our world that so many people are uninformed about.

For me competence is a driving core value in my work ethic, as it drives close to my infatuation with order and controls. I enjoy working in teams and, helping people accomplish goals while increasing efficiency along with work place moral. Currently in my work place I am known as a “big brother” figure, as I am bother caring on a personal level but also am able to help further develop my co-works in a friendly manner. I take charge in training new hire employees, helping them better work our systems while gaining a more in depth understand of their part in our work team. For me going to work is most enjoyable when I’m helping the team operate at a better level.

Growing up, I was a child who encountered many hardships. As I came to an age to begin realizing an underprivileged childhood I lived, I learned overlook it and live on. I began to ask myself “What does it take to live a lifestyle of true comfort financially?” This is a question which I reflect on every day and is one which motivates me to flourish. Raised by a single mother within a lower economic class, we often ran into very tough times. At one point we had to completely pack up and relocate and live in my grandfather’s house. Discomfort cannot describe the reality or feeling, however we were blessed to have Family, family that we could rely on. At the age of 14, I set a goal that would require my best work to become a successful financial advisor. I will not let my childhood define my future; rather I will control my destiny through my experiences and my accomplishments as a result of work ethic.

I was 14 years old when I walked into my first restaurant kitchen as a worker, and over the last 14 years I've been everything from a dishwasher to a kitchen manager. At the beginning of this year I made a goal to become the best version of myself. This goal included taking my already great work ethic and making it amazing. It has become my mission to evolve into the cook that I've always envisioned myself being, and to be the type of cook I would want to have work for me. I understand the hard work everyone has to collectively put in to make day to day operations run smoothly, and how to recognize when things need tweaking for more cost-effective purposes.

In this season of my life, I find myself residing in the most opportune time to reflect on my managerial competencies, as my surrounding environment in which I now lead and manage, has taken a dramatic shift. The eight roles identified by the Competing Values Framework that are essential for effective management, do not make the smoothest transition from a multi until store manager in a retail environment, to a Director of Children’s Ministry in a religious institution. The competencies in which I excelled in Corporate America, I find are not the strengths I need to tap into to find success in my new role. Therefore, in order to achieve the vision of what comparable success is in my new role, I need to build on my competencies that display weakness in regards to the Competing Values Framework that will be the defining factor of my success or failure.

Seize the day!   This is my motto.   My life is driven by my work ethic and immense desire to succeed, every single day.   I have grown up with the understanding that application is just as important as knowledge itself.   Throughout my life I have pushed myself to achieve whatever I set my mind to, regardless of the difficulties I face.

Since I started my studies in nursing, my strong work ethic and good study habits have followed me through my path. I graduated with a 3.75 GPA from El Paso Community college with an Associate degree in Nursing and 3.84 GPA from the University of Texas at El Paso, Magna Cum Laude High honors Bachelor of Science in Nursing. I am aware graduate studies are a new challenge and an opportunity to expand my knowledge. I have prepared for this new challenge in many ways. My current director is aware of my interest in the quest for of a master’s degree and is supportive.

If I were to use one word to summarize my past, my failures and successes, my future goals, and my personality I would use the word sports. I know this is supposed to be a reflection about school this year, but sports impacted who I was as a student this year. As an athlete I learned how to work hard, work through failure, and how to have an effective routine. This year for hockey I also learned that I have to make sacrifices to make time to practice, for instance I had to practice in the mornings to get time on the ice. I had to wake up and get in my car that reeked of hockey gear, then get on the ice to skate around for practice and feel the sweat run down my back.

My personal values act as a basis for determining right and wrong in my daily life. My life, my parents, my husband and my children have all played valuable roles in the development of my core values. The following is an ever changing personal ethics creed, that I plan on using to help guide me in my endeavors.
