Something I Am Proud Of

Something I am proud of was being able to give my friend advice when he was having a hard time with something personal in his life, that I had already gone through so I had the ability to walk him through the process and tell him how to move past it, what to expect and how to handle the situation in the best way possible. The fact that I was able to give him advice and that it ended up workout out for him, and knowing that I had an influence on him while knowing that I was able to contribute to a good choice that benefited him was very rewarding for me, because not only was I able to help out a friend that was going through something personal but it taught me how I can take experiences that happened to me, negative and positive ones and am able to use them to help someone else out was very empowering and something that I am extremely proud. This was also an important lesson for me because it teaches me that even if a situation looks bad or is hard at the moment, if I’m​ able to turn it into something positive then it makes me realize that everything happens for a reason and that it’s important to remember that we control of our feelings which helps put the situation into perspective; which also I’ve learned helps me move past it once I remember that I am the one who gives value to things, therefore I realize that I am in control of how I let things affect my life. Being proud of one’s accomplishments is something to be content about and should be celebrated, even if they aren’t much it’s important to acknowledge.
