Part I: Reflection
As a child, I explicitly remembered going to elementary school and absolutely detesting
certain subjects such as history and musical arts. These subjects were like eating raw
onions because I never liked learning anything about history nor using an instrument to
amuse my peers. I remembered when my teacher would say, “Alright guys today is the day
that we will be going to Mr. Roe’s class to learn how to use instruments.” At that point, I
literally wanted to cry because I absolutely hated his class and doing his activities.

organized and knew how to count all of my money at the end of the day without making
any mistakes. Moreover, in accounting organizational skills is a must because it is
imperative to know what accounts have debits and credits signs. Also, you have to put all
data in a chronological order because if you don’t, all the accounting will be out of order
leading you to not know if your business is doing well economically. Therefore, having
mathematical and organizational skills are very important to have when becoming an
accountant. One trait that is needed to become an accountant is having patience because
accounting always deals with a lot of numbers and sheets which can give stress if you look
at the whole picture at once. But if you look at the work in pieces and you have patience
the work of being an accountant isn’t too bad.
As mentioned my strengths with respect to skills and traits are organized, mathematics,
