Dragons' Den: Life Lesson


A life lesson I learned the hard way is patience. I used to think that if I demanded perfection right away things would go my way. If I rushed through everything I wouldn't have to do it again, or it would be done faster. Then, I wasn't completing tasks neatly or correctly. I found myself becoming frustrated more than anything. I learned that people tend to err a lot and that no one is perfect. It's okay if things don't come out right the first time because there is always room for improvement, too. Now, I tend to take things more lightly. I pause, maybe take a breath, and wait. If things don't come out the way I want them, I try again.

Dragons' Den: Shoes


My favorite brand of shoes is Nike. In case you have never seen them, these shoes are flip-flops. They are very comfortable and come in a variety of colors. I wear these Nike sandals on a regular basis because they are extremely cushioned and help support my "arch" (I have very flat feet). I also like these sandals because I prefer them over closed-toe shoes. I do not like wearing socks or shoes! Even in the wintertime, I wear sandals! If I saw one of my peers wearing these shoes, I would complement them.
