 When I first came, the positive qualities that I brought to the table were ones of creativity, the ability to be able to learn new things, and the intent of having a positive attitude. These qualities have not only helped me maintain a positive outlook on the expeditions, but also have helped me learn new outdoor skills. I have been able to learn from past mistakes and the new qualities that came from them. I believe my greatest challenge to be, in a broad statement, facing fears. More specifically the judgment of the real me. I think that I fear that the problem or fear, or challenge, whatever you want to assess it as, is the fear of not fitting in. However with the qualities that I brought to the table, I am working on the challenge at hand.
