Welcome to the 6th Six Weeks!  The blog will be possible interview questions you might be asked while looking for a job.  Think through your answer and compose it as though your future employer will be reading it.  I want you to be prepared as much as possible for the interviews you will face.  The way to prepare for anything is to practice.

Initiative is the power or ability to begin or to follow through energetically with a plan or task; enterprise and determination.  Today's blog:  Give a specific example of your initiative.  Your example can come from any of your own experiences such church, community, school or extra-curricular.  Maybe you planned an event for the youth group at church or maybe you saw solution to a problem at work.  Think of a time when you were uncertain how to begin but you made a decision and went with it.  Many of you are facing some major decisions such as where to attend college, where to work, and where to live.  Your example maybe that you visited several colleges and found the one that meets your needs.  I have heard that this blog is hard but show some "initiative" and really think about a specific example.  Have you ever made a suggestion on a better way to do something at work?  Have you ever practiced something more than what was required?  Have you ever been unsatisfied with something in your life so you took steps to change it?  Have you ever read a book or learned something just because you wanted to "conquer" it?  Have you ever done something nice for someone just because you wanted his or her life to be better?  Tomorrow's blog will be similar but I will try to make it more understandable.
