Assignment 16A What's Your Secret Sauce?

•  Five ways I think that I have human capital that is truly unique:
1. Sympathetic: I have always considered myself to be a sympathetic person. In almost all situations whether they involve me directly or not I always tend to put my heart into it, this can either be a really good quality (which most of the time it is) or it can be a bad quality, depending on the situation. 
2. Passion: I have always considered myself to be extremely passionate about everything in life, whether it be job, school, sports, and pretty much everything life throws at me, I always strive to give my all no matter what.
3. Drive: This is something I have always taken pride in about myself, I am an extremely driven person and I work towards my goals no matter how extreme or small.
4. Trustworthy: I have always been a person that others can confide in and come to when they need advice or just a neutral source to talk about anything with, knowing that I will keep their secrets and information safe.
5. Leader: I have always worked towards improving my leadership skills throughout every opportunity in my life and I think that is the reason I credit myself with being such a driven leader.

• Interviews: 
• My first interview that I conducted was with one of my friends Madison. 
• She told me that I had a sixth sense when it came to knowing what peoples needs were and how to interpret when others are having problems. This could align very well with having an entrepreneurship mindset and being able to know what needs people have.

• My next interview was with my friend Adela
• Adela told me that I was able to be considerate and caring when someone was talking to me. This helps me when it comes to be an entrepreneur because I am able to listen to the needs that people have in the world and care.

• My next interview was with my friend Rebecca 
• Rebecca's response was similar to Adela's in the sense that I am able to be there for others when they have problems or needs. This reiterates the fact to me that I am easy to talk to and that I am always open to listen when anyone has a problem or a need. 

• My next interview was with my friend Caroline 
• Caroline's response was very helpful to give me insight about how I am willing to listen to people and give them advice whenever they need it. Being able to listen to people's problems and interpret their needs and feelings would give me an advantage in the entrepreneur world. 

In conclusion, after interviewing each of the people who know me the best I feel that my assumptions of myself were pretty accurate about what values I possess. There are not that many differences in how I see myself versus how others see me, this assignment allowed me to get more of an outside perspective of how a consumer would see myself.
