"The world is full of opportunities & people that help make that happen. Living life to my full potential by always over achieving!"

Summary

Eight years of experience in the telecommunications field. I have been blessed with people that taught me the value in the word, "Team." Who have showed me morals and to hold on to my integrity. Have had the opportunity to learn that people have choices to their actions and what happens when they hold themselves Accountable life both in my work/ personal, the sky is my limit but the goal is the stars and if possible beyond the stars. Life happens and you will see me fall and you will see me fly but you have never seen me glide. All success comes with good and bad and their highs and lows, but it’s how one challenges themselves to resolve the problem and the feedback that is given that matters. Our daily routes weather its work or day-to-day life, shouldn't be about who is right nor being right. It’s about the service you bring to your customers and accomplishments that matter. I have been able to learn, train, and be trained by enjoying and willing to help others. Admire and appreciate the people in my life for my current knowledge that has been shared and live to learn more for it.
Believe with success there is happiness and I live to be successful and will continue being that fisherman on their boat that has an open

Becoming A Leader

                      As you grow up you are taught values, morals, integrity, the difference between right and wrong and that every individual has choices. You have your parents, extended family such as cousins, uncles, aunts, and grandparents, teacher, and you have friends throughout your life. Inspiring leaders do not always know their gift in the way they lead.  Their are different types of leaders; the leader that expect you to do as you're told, the leader that has to micromanage everything, and the inspiring leaders. Spiritual leaders are the ones that have attracted my attention. I have observed and practiced on how to be that type of leader. Spiritual leaders have the ability to listen and understand an individual they are approaching regarding a problem, task, or project.
                     What makes this possible is by communication to make sure they have a good understanding where the individual is coming. Also, by investigating what is communicated only to give back proper and accurate feedback. All leaders should practice and remember to be selfless and care about others.  That is type of leader I am, my road is not always clear, a bit bumpy, and that is okay. I was given choices in life and I choose to motivate and be motivated. Since motivation doesn't last, and neither does bathing. "That's why its recommended daily!"  Do not worry about who's to blame or being right. Do what is right and make sure that you remember to over achieve.
