My greatest work-related accomplishment was starting as an intern in television production and working my way up to a television producer. It took many years of hard work in seven different positions. However, I worked hard, learned what I needed to know, practiced skills until they were second nature to me, and reached my goals every time. The company I worked for created a position for me when my supervisor, and I noticed a niche I could fill. When I teach my students how to set their goals, I briefly tell my story to encourage and motivate them to reach theirs.
