If I was told to describe my sister using one of our shared experiences, it would have to be Young Social Entrepreneurs 2017. YSE 2017 was a workshop that solely Aanchal had planned based on her passion for social entrepreneurship. It was a five-day event that allowed 30 eligible high school students to learn about social innovation and entrepreneurship while formulating their own UAE based social enterprises. The student groups created pitch decks of their enterprises mirroring those used with top venture capitalists and startup incubators, and those with the pitch deck most applicable and well constructed in relation to the local community received seed money to launch their enterprise. I had the pleasure of working alongside her during the As I mentioned previously, Aanchal has been supportive to me since day one, and whether it was me or someone completely stranger, she would have always been the same. She takes joy in helping others, and always believes that everyone should be given equal opportunities, disregarding their status. The third response was more than one word but had me in hysterics when I heard it. The student had described Aanchal as ‘speaks like a rap god,’ which I surprisingly agreed to. When she wants something to come to life, her lungs do not give up! Sometimes, it takes me a few attempts to comprehend her statements; but nevertheless, it’s another one of her traits that I absolutely adore. In conclusion, my sister immensely grew throughout the very beginning of her final speech of YSE 2017. She greatly learned about opportunities, and there is a great deal of talent we constantly ignore. Seeing her develop incredibly inspired me, and today, I positively say that one day, I would be honored to have her refined and diverse skill set. I am honored to have a sister who I can look up to and take inspiration from every single
I’m glad we have Maurice, my mother’s younger brother here today. Ella, her older sister, unfortunately couldn’t make it, but I know the news of my mothers death hit her hard. And I know that she prayed with all her will, for my mother.
Being a twin sister to more or less an average sister (with all the usual arguing, competing, the typical sibling rivalry stuff), I've learned a lot about the meaning of the term "it takes a village". My sister was born with Pulmonary Atresia (a closed heart valve). Though no one but herself could truly appreciate the endurance and pain of what she had to go through, I too developed a sense of immense appreciation on how many different medical specialists, physical therapists, social workers and other multiple specialists are involved in helping patients like my sister; not just survive but thrive! Volunteering at a Pediatric Medical office over the last three years has made me realize how great things happen when multiple fields come together.
She is currently working hard advancing her business forward to make a better living for herself. The business has had a slow start, but she claims that is natural for things to not fall into place first time around. She knows how hard things are to accomplish, and she knows what she must do to accomplish what she wants. From all the she has learned she’s now teaches the ropes to her brother like that he doesn’t have to struggle like she did. She helps him in any way that she cans and she’s more than happy to do so. She mentors him on the right things that he should expect in school, and what to do in order to succeed.
Additionally, she stresses that the values of her childhood helped her to develop respect for different people. Her father influenced her a lot to feel comfortable just the way she is around her hometown; ...
It seems that every sibling doesn’t always have a great relationship with their older or younger siblings. In the movie “Real Women Have Curves”, we have two sisters, Anna and Estella,who seem not to get along in the beginning because of their differences, but at the end they become the best of friends because they have similar dreams and learn to support each other. The advantage of Anna and Estella’s relationship is that they benefit from each other. The whole story is that you don’t always realize how much you have in common with your siblings until you realize that you have similar dreams and can be there for each other.
One example I’d like to share is about one special lady named Pat. She taught me many things. While working in the “feeding room” I assisted her. This room is separate from the dining room where residents need assistance to feed themselves. She was always smiling and very talkative; she conveyed her whole life to me.
Nakai and my family were my support throughout my year as being Bloomfield High School Miss Nashdoi. Mrs. Nakai made an impact in my life by giving me the opportunity to be able to attend conferences. My family supported me with every decision I made upon myself. The lesson I had to learn from being an ambassador is learning to always stay positive. Unexpectedly, I had met people who were negative. This has given me a different perspective. The leadership skills that I had developed were to bring back information to my community for other youth to learn. Not only have I learned to teach but children, adults, and elderly people have taught me along the way. My niece once told me “I inspired her to make a difference in her life.” Therefore, she becomes Miss Farmington American Indian Ambassador 2015-2016. However, I always try to use this lesson today because I remain positive through difficult situations. I still learn from people throughout my life as they teach me life
Kari, I want to note how beautiful you look today, and to tell you that this has truly been a special day for me. Thank you for giving true meaning to the word sister and for sharing the last 28 years with me. My parents and I have just loved this girl from the day she was born. We?ve coddled her, enjoyed her, and laughed with her. I know how much joy she has brought into our lives, and I know that she?ll bring that joy into Ernest?s life...
As a University student now looking back on the past, all the trials and hardships, my grandmother passing was not all dreadful. In fact, this dreadful event actually opened up my eyes for me to reach my highest peak. It has taught me to be strong and proactive. In addition, it taught me that I should get all I can while I am alive and do not take anything, such as education, for granted.
Having someone in your life that you consider special is a wondering feeling. And when this person has played so many different roles throughout my life it’s a magnificent feeling for her to feel so accomplished and so admired. When I think back to everything I’ve done I can’t look over the fact that the reason I did it is because she made me the fantastic person I am. I’m glad she passed all the things on to me and I hope I can do the same to next generations. The traditions that we have created are known throughout my entire family and I’m glad that we were both a part of them. She is an extraordinary person and I look forward to all the great memories I still have left with her to create. My Grandma is with out a doubt the most influential person in my life and I’m so grateful for her presence.
...ellness. But as an adult who is capable of making my own choices, I have found that I admire my older sister for her new-found dedication to improving her intellectual and occupational wellness by returning to school. I also have found new admiration for my mother for discovering a way to find her own emotional, spiritual, and environmental wellness.
Ever since I can remember, my big sister Barbara has been my heroine, my role model and, when needed, my substitute mother. She's beautiful, sweet, intelligent, funny and loving. Whatever she did I wanted to do, and consciously or not I emulated her: from choices in men (she favored creative types: photographers, filmmakers and writers for her; writers and musicians for me), personal style (though my Afro was never a big as hers), taste in music and even career choices.
Entrepreneurship - a special kind of activity. Its constant conditions are limited resources, competition and uncertainty of the situation. The main tools of the entrepreneur are: thrift, cooperation and innovation. Consequently, enterprise is the independent economic entity, with rights of a legal entity, which is based on the use of labor collective property produces and sells products, works, and provides services.
Nowadays, entrepreneurship becomes most popular career, where our government encourages our graduated student to involve in business so that unemployment will not happen in our country. Policymakers, academics, and researcher agree that entrepreneurship is a vital route to economic advancement for both developed and developing economics (Zelealem et al., 2004). Entrepreneurship has many types for example small business and others. Today small business, particularly the new ones, is the main vehicle for entrepreneurship, contributing not just to employment, social and political stability, but also to innovation and competitive power (Thurik & Wennekers, 2004).
We learned a lot of things in this course, but I think the most important lesson I learned is that it’s not easy to be an entrepreneur. I was surprised to hear in the first class that 80% of startups fail, but after reading The Art of Start and E-myth Revisited I understood why this happens more often than one might expects. Some people start their own businesses for the wrong reason and some start with wrong mindset. I’ve always thought that if someone has a brilliant business idea and hardworking they will succeed and grow their business. However, now I know that there are many things to consider before starting any business. In fact, there are many strategies that an entrepreneur could follow to achieve success, such as know your customers, work “on” the business, and how
