As we matriculate through life, we all have decisions that must be thought out and choices that need to be made. The decision of who we ultimately wish to become; the choice of whether you personally are going to make a change for the better or fall by the waste side as life continues to move. For some the choice was easy, for others, the decision was a bit more daunting. I have made my choice. My choice was more of a desire, I desire to be an Alpha Man. I desire this because this is an organization that has stood the test of time, and continues to be an image of change. I desire to be a part of this Organization because of the brotherly relationship it builds between men, its’ dedication to bettering our communities, as well as how mutually beneficial as far as growth. Brotherhood is more than blood and kinship; it is a connection with a person or a group of people built on love, trust, and respect; that you know is unbreakable. Alpha Phi Alpha has built its core principals around that one word. While that “one word” is one of the major reasons for their continued success throughout time. When you believe in something that is bigger than yourself, you can create change in the areas around your life. As a result, when you surround yourself with people that …show more content…
The development of myself as an individual, as well as how I can contribute to the growth of the organization. Helping me be able to accomplish my goals as far as my city and my family goes. Every change and connection I make will only uplift and promote what the organization stands for as a whole. Every positive action, influence, and change that happens as a result will develop both; to create a more dynamic full effect for the people we affect. Changing the lives of the individual that are active in that community is the ultimate
At a young age I knew as an African American woman through activism, educational autonomy, and community service, I can thrive through the wake of extreme poverty and turmoil faced by the people of my neighborhood of East New York. My interest in Sigma Gamma Rho Sorority Inc., would be based solely on their ethical standards, history, and values they are founded upon. The ladies of this organization exude exemplary character who excel in sisterhood, respect, honesty, accountability, and integrity. Throughout my life I always encouraged myself to have these ideal characteristics without knowing that one day I would be pursuing membership in a prestigious organization, whom upheld the key principles “greater service, greater progress. The first
I am interested in joining Alpha Kappa Psi because I wish to be a part of l ink minded people striving for academic and professional success. In addition, I would love to be a part of a family that will support me in all aspects of my life.
In sources of strength, the members are chosen as someone who would be a person anyone could come up and talk with if they were having a bad day. Also, as seniors we have two seventh grade kids that we mentor. I do this because I remember how hard it was being a seventh grader and not really knowing much about high school. Once a week we sit down and talk with the children. I always love the stories they have to tell and I truly feel blessed when I can help with anything they are struggling with. Whether that be something in school or something at home, it is so fulfilling talking with them. This activity has taught me what it means to give back to a school and to these kids who need my help. I love service and I spend a lot of time trying to help others with problems. Sources of strength has let me do just that. I have learned what it means to be a leader. This is a large responsibility I do not take lightly. I know the actions I do will have an effect on others, so I try to make sure those effects are positive at all
I believe the biggest skill that I possess that will maintain Alpha Kappa Alpha’s status is the desire to help. As a sorority that holds service at a high standard, I believe having that drive to help in
I have gained access to this community through pledgeship in Sigma Chi, one the most prestigious fraternities in the nation, with the hopes of becoming a brother. Even though I have access to this community I know very little because I am so new. Through my research, I have learned and discovered the intricacies and deeper understandings of not just Sigma
For years I have aspired to become a part of an elite organization such as the military, and more importantly, the United States Navy. Its reputation for instilling high moral character was encouragement for me to develop into a more mature, responsible, and independent young citizen. There are certain qualities that an officer must possess such as: honor, courage, commitment, and attention to duty, responsiveness to orders, cooperation, loyalty, leadership, integrity, and discipline. Throughout my high school career, I showcased these qualities while an active member of The American Legion of Ohio Buckeye Boy’s State, The National Honor Society, as a leader in the Ohio State Highway Patrol Junior Cadets, Clay and Waite High School Marching Band Alumni, Quiz Bowl, and Top Ten Scholars. I was actively involved in charitable activities such as Math and SOS tutoring, community volunteering, and the Indian 100 Leadership Team, (a volunteer organization on my high school campus). I have shown strength, perseverance and leadership in my participation in wrestling, cheerleading, and bodybui...

Will Smith once said, “If you're not making someone else's life better, then you're wasting your time. Your life will become better by making other lives better”. As a young child, I always tried to find a way to help someone in need. I grew up volunteering in some capacity from volunteering at the local Stew Pot to helping implement organization’s events at my school. When I came to Jackson State University, I had never been introduced to Golden Key International Honor Society. I became introduced to Golden Key at the organizational fair during the fall semester in 2014. From listening to the experiences of current members of Golden Key, my interest to join increased.
Why do I want to be an area officer? While these words are not exactly the same as previous essay prompts I have been given, they all share the same idea; “Why do I want to be a leader”? Looking back at my old responses they are all focused on similar concepts; I wanted to be a leader because of the friendships, traveling and meeting new people, building better leadership skills, learning how to better communicate with people, and acquiring life skills, such as patience, teamwork, organization, and dedication. While all of these things have some importance, they should never be the reason someone wants to be a leader. When I wrote these I thinking about how to better myself, rather than how to help others. I was thinking selfishly. At the time I didn’t know what it truly meant to be a leader, to be willing to sacrifice myself for others. Even while I am still young and have much to learn, I finally understand why I want to be a leader and what a true leader should look like. I would like the opportunity to serve as a 2014-2015 Area Officer, so that I can better serve the FFA, my fellow members, and ultimately my world.
I’m honored to accept your nomination for Worthy Vice Counselor and that you believed I have the potential for the future of PDC. I am a Phi Delta Chi because you helped me through the toughest semester of my life by making Kingsville a human habitat. I want to be able to reflect that motto to the future of Brothers of PDC.
Being able to lead and inspire a team to perform their best and strive to achieve goals. I do this through relationship building, being passionate about the goals, and influencing those around me.

that fraternity life has a lot behind it and the members take it very seriously.
I am sure that most women have fantasized at some point in their life, about a man that is extremely handsome, muscular, and has a sex appeal that could be seen even in his walk. The way he walks and his body language tell a woman that he has the highest ego in the world. These are some of the characteristics of an alpha male. An alpha male is a person who is strong and has the power to make dreams turn into a reality.
