Think of a person that you admire and consider successful—professionally or academically. The person you choose can be a public figure or someone from your own life. Conduct some research to learn more about that person. If it is a person in your life, ask them questions. If it is a public figure, conduct some online research.

1. In a one- to two-paragraph post to the discussion, answer the following questions:

· What characteristics does that person have that you feel contributed to their success? Give examples to support your opinions.

· What characteristics do you have that are similar to that person's?

· What characteristics of that person do you wish you had? Specifically, what can you do to demonstrate that quality?
