I am so excited to work on my EDGE project. I am excited to go back to New York. I am also excited to work with so many different people from so many different cultures.
What personal strengths will be most helpful for the completion of your project?
I have already been to New York so navigating shouldn’t be as difficult. I am also a friendly person. It will help me make connections with people and make their day a little brighter.
What personal weaknesses (personality traits, distractions, lack of knowledge, skills, experiences, etc.) might keep you from completing your project?
I struggle with anxiety. I have been struggling the past couple weeks, but I feel comfortable to go with the school and I know it is only for 1 week. I have been able self talk and calm myself down. I know I will miss my husband. This could interfere with my project because I have a hard time falling asleep with out him near me. I will probably have lack of sleep because of this. This could prevent me from serving with my full strength
How will you overcome those weaknesses?
Like I said in the last question I have been able to self talk and calm myself down. If something happens I can call my husband for a couple minutes and that always helps me think straight. I can usually work through my anxiety by keeping myself busy. So I am not too busy. I know I will have friends on the trip. They can help me not think about my husband. I can also just try and call my husband if I really can’t sleep. If I have lack of sleep I will make sure I have eaten good meals with water. And keep myself hydrated and with good nutrients.
What outside threats might keep you from completing your project?

I can get another flight.
What do you most hope to gain and learn while engaged in your EDGE project? Compassion. I want to see people as people and not as their circumstance.
When it is all said and done, what do you want this project's story to tell about you?
When it is all said and done, what do you want this project's story to tell about you?
I am willing to sacrifice money and time to help others. I want to change myself to think of myself less.
Give yourself some good advice now that will help you out when the going gets tough. You are doing good. Remember that you are helping these people. They will always remember the people who helped them.
