How have you overcome obstacles?: Overcoming obstacles takes patience and creativity of using your abilities to solve a problem. I have a good understanding of my limitations and strengths, and my continuous learning how to break down obstacles nto smaller ones that I can handle is key to my success in life.
What is your most embarrassing moment?: Everytime I have to ask for help and becoming a burden for another person.
What is your most triumphant moment?: Everytime I swallow my pride and ask for help from willing people. Seeing the results of getting things accomplish faster than I would on my own withoutburdening another person.
