Some students have a background or story that is so central to their identity that they believe their application would be incomplete without it. If this sounds like you, then please share your story.
Our identity is found in our unique stories. Stories which have been build up with our background, experiences and passions.
I'm a Christian, my life has been so greatly affected by God that without him I wouldn't have a purpose. At such a young age, I have my future planned out and throughout my past years of education I have prepared in order to accomplish what I want.
Outside of my academic success and involvement in clubs and organization, my passion is placed in leadership. From my perspective, is not only about becoming better every day, but also assisting others to do the same. As I said before, being a Christian takes great influence in what I do on my daily life. I'm a leader at the church "Segadores De Vida" ( Harvesters of life) . They have developed my talents and gift with the purpose of using them to impact those who surround me. I do this by talking to girls (sometimes guys) listening to their problems, providing advise ( based on my morals and principals) and praying for them.
With a partner we hold weekly youth group for girls of all ages. Our vision is to work with each of them individually until they are prepared to become leaders themselves. I love to see someone grow. I love to see teenagers getting out of their shell to make a difference, to stand up regardless of what others think. And I love to be given the opportunity to help them get there. Many times leadership is all about being a shoulder, a stepping stone into someone's greatness, proving that warmth environment where people feel at home.
To be a leader is not just being in charge of an activity, leadership is to have the ability to influence others in such a way that your name will forever be remembered in their heads. Segadores has thought me how to leave a legacy wherever we go because that's what is going to transcend us. Throughout this leadership I have learned how to encounter those who face family problems, as many teenagers go through. We have had girls that used to do drugs and smoked but after several talks and prayer, have decided to be changed by God. In this way, I started reaching out to many of my friends.
This can also be portrait in the ministry at church where I have done over 150 of my community hours with kids ages 9-11. A ministry called "SDV Kids"; I formed part of a team that takes cares of them . I preach to them, counsel them, play with them, just anything that is in my hands in order to help them be better.
Many perceive me as different because of how I carry myself, numerous of my acquaintances are surprise when I tell them not to use curse word in front of me, others are perplex when they learn my story and hear my testimony. But it's all about how I use what I have in order to create that change in people's life.
So if you ask me what I have to contribute, my answer would be : I have the abilities to take those skills that I have acquired and to utilize them in Harvard if given the chance, whether it is in any clubs or organizations, I'm prepared to continue making a difference in whatever I do.
Depicting from what Maxwell said "A leader is one who knows the way, goes the way, and shows the way." It not just about knowing the way, but reaching out to others and helping them find that way. Many times this requires for us start a way where one doesn't exist.
