My advice motto is LISTEN-CARE-RESPOND! BELIEVE IN YOURSELF - we are stronger than we give ourselves credit for!
advice
next year i want to apply to my National Honors Society in my school, however one of the criteria is to have some experience in LEADING, but i dont have any remarkable leadership positions.
what kinds of things can i do that have a leadership role? (and dont say join a club..because in order to be voted as a pres or VP, i need to have been in a club for at least a year. and i havent.)
ty in advance
I love the community project suggestion that someone else posted -- good idea!
If that sounds like more than you want to or are able to handle, I have another suggestion.
If you enjoy children, you could volunteer to work with kids at an after school program or at a community outreach facility.
You probably wouldn't be given complete or sole responsbility for the kids you work with, but taking the initiative, spending time with them, providing a positive example for them to follow, being a good and consistant influence in their lives are all terrific leadership qualities.
Who knows, you may even find an opportunity that would allow you to work with several kids on something specific, thereby providing you with literal "leadership" experience. Best of luck to you,
Kind wishes,
(Rating: 5) thanks! really good suggestion, i love kids so that's perfect. the problem is finding an after school program to volunteer for.
