Personal Development Strategies and Techniques- Personal Branding

Objective

In the first week course of personal development strategies and techniques, we developed our own personal branding. A brand is a succinct, highly creative way of expressing an identity. A person who knows himself or herself well can develop a strong personal brand. They can utilize their advantages maximum in their life and work. In order to know ourselves well, we have to come up with the idea about short term and long term goal, value, purpose and passion. 

Reflective

For my short term goal, I would like to pursue the good and helpful career for co-op in Vancouver now. As long as I can obtain the office job here, I can graduate successfully from Greystone College. However, it will be more satisfactory if the job matches the experience I have in my own country. Afterwards, the working experience in Vancouver will be helpful to my career back to Taiwan.

As for long term goal, I prefer coming up with new short term goals  during each period of time. As you know, if there is no goal or aim in the short future, it will be confusing and even worse is that I may get depressed. As I already had the same feeling for the past years during work.  Moreover, after achieving the goals, I will not feel regretted, but satisfied with my condition and establish self-confidence. 

About my personal value, I would like to aim on being a person who knows to be grateful. I don't take things as granted. I know April showers bring May flowers. Someone who is willing to help me and guide me to the right road is my teacher and my luck. Being grateful is not only keeping in mind but also we can convey what we learned to help next one who is needed.

What is the purpose of my life? It is really a good question to dig out. I am a person who will become stronger no matter mental or physical if someone needs assistance.  If something can make me become stronger, I think it will be the purpose of my life. Helping people in need with my skills or competences make me feel achieved because I do have commitment to this my life and society.

Passion can motivate you to move forward on the path. To me, my passion is obtaining new knowledge and ideas continuously in my life. I like to gain new experiences and knowledge through activities or even work. They strengthen my competency and new ideas through experience. Endless knowledge is powerful and  makes me connect more with this world.

Interpretive

The most important thing is to recognize myself. What I am and what I can do. Making personal branding can let me dig deeper in me and discover what is my personality and capability. In addition, people who meet me at the first time can know me faster. On the other hand, I can find out what my limit is as well. However, sometimes I may miss some points to interpret myself.   

Decisional

I will implement my personal branding through every new year and come back to the blog to make sure I will not forget what the idea is that I wrote down here. Followed by my character and personalities, I will gain more experiences and be recognized by the personal branding.
