11. S ELF A SSESSMENT I feel that throughout my life I have strived to always be the best I can be. I may try and push my self a little to far some times, but it has made me who I am. I have to balance a lot of activities, but not keeping busy is not who I am. I know how far I can push my self until it is too much and I know I have to step down at that point because otherwise everything could be a disaster.
