 SKILLS AND ABILITIES

 ·         Working under strict rules in a very regulated environment where adherence to discipline is important, will not bother me easily. I may even experience frustrations when things need to be done without structure and control measures. I think this is my good habit for success in general.

 ·         Helping people in need comes somewhat natural for me. I get fulfilment from doing it and I have a strong sense for making life easier for people living under difficult conditions.

 ·         Hard work, long hours and tough assignments do not scare me. I have a strong habit of showing endurance when necessary.

 ·         It is not easy for me to give something important to others to do. I tend to rather do it myself. I think this is very good in situations where I have developed a high level of competency.

 ·         I have a positive participating attitude towards my world and the things I do. I will push for positive change by making myself available to actively work towards a better reality for all. I might even become actively assertive to get things done.

I have good skill in leading my day to day activities with plan. I perform almost all of my duties by plan. I have good skill to work with fellow human beings smoothly
