Hey everyone, im looking at these old threads on the "adversity/challenge" secondary essays that a lot of schools ask for. So far they only helped a bit. My life has been pretty steady, with not too much in terms of hardships and stuff.
I was wondering how something like a leadership position could be looked at in terms of the challenges I faced? One specific example was my position in organizing a large event for my org, and having to deal with several issues not only before the day of the big event, but during (musicians didn't arrive, transportation got messed up etc). It was a stressful time and it really took time from school and work since I wanted to make sure everything was in order. Everything turned out fine in the end, so I want to say i learned a lot about organization, time management, working with others, communicating, as well as preparing me for anything that could happen.
I wanted to know if this is poignant or interesting enough to write about. Thanks!
