1.  Please tell me ONE THING which resonated with you from today’s class with Edwin.  In other words, identify one thing which took place during today’s class, whether it’s something Edwin said or something you observed during Rosa or Ianique’s mock phone interviews, which made you think about your strategy for success.   Please send your well written answer to my email address with perfect spelling and punctuation, SHORT SENTENCES and correct capitalization of words like ‘I”  as soon as you can.  I look forward to reading your answer.  Thank you.

2.  Please read the incredible story of Joe Rantz in “The Brand” textbook from page 89 to page 101 posted on this web site.  Then, please send me your assessment on how Joe Rantz was able to find the strength as a young boy, after his parents abandoned him TWICE, to persevere and continue his life to pursue his dreams, graduate from college and then become a successful engineer at the Boeing company!   Why didn’t Joe give up?  How was he able to continue, forgive and work hard in school and on his college and Olympic rowing teams?  Please share your insights with me by sending your well written statement to my email address with perfect spelling and punctuation, SHORT SENTENCES and correct capitalization of words like ‘I” as soon as you can.
