 In class today we started to really work on our marketing plan. We spent most of the class doing self-assessment activities which were very eye-opening to me. I was especially interested in the attitudes and identities matrix. I thought it was interesting to compare and contrast who I wanted to be in different aspects of my life. I think sometimes I can find myself behaving differently amongst different people and different atmospheres. I'm not sure if this is something I should change, but it was definitely very interesting to see. I think it would be even more shocking if we had friends, family, and coworkers fill out the matrix about us!

 As we work more on our marketing plan, I am enjoying the exercises more and more. My personal favorite for today's was the list of influential people and the list of moments. For the influential people list, I automatically knew who to put down. The first person I wrote was my mom. My mom is my biggest supporter, and one of my role models in life. I strive to be even half as successful, happy, loving, charismatic, and intelligent as she is. Next, I wrote down my friend Lia. I am so influenced by Lia, for so many reasons but mostly because of her mindset. She does whatever she wants and never cares what others will think of her! Lastly, I put my dance teacher, Rachel. Rachel has always been like a second mom to me, and has taught me so much more than just dance. I am so influenced and so honored to know and have these ladies as a part of my life.

 Today in class we watched a video on motivation and positivity. It is so important to be motivated in whatever you do, especially in your career. Motivation is one of the key factors of success. This lesson made me think of my mom. She went to college and studied accounting all the way through her graduation. Once she graduated, she did an internship for an accounting firm and absolutely hated it. Because she had no motivation to do accounting, so she quit and completely changed her career path. Now she owns her own dance studio, and does what she is passionate about every single day. I hope to be motivated in my career like she is one day.

Today, we watched a documentary on the 2008 economic crash. It was eye-opening to see how the troubles brewing in the United States were kept under wraps until they hit every day Americans hard. Learning that just three big banks had so mich power over the economy, and how their shady dealings caused many to lose everything, really made me question our blind trust in the government.  It was a stark reminder of how quickly things can go downhill when the wrong people are in charge.
