Leaders: In many times, I am not taking the leader role even if theres a chance to, because I don’t like to handle everything, or just like to be the follower all. the time. I understand that leadership is very important, but I just can’t step forward and take the risk. And that leads to another goal, taking risks. I like doing something I’m good at, or feel more comfortable with, It might that I’m not going, or a bit shy, but once you get to know me well, not really, not a shy person at all. So I will try my best to reach my goal in this semester.
