Background

About Margaret Affeld

Embrace going big. This is something that I incorporate into my daily life, whether that be with school, sports, or anything else life throws at me. I do this through setting stretch goals that require me to push myself and work hard in order to accomplish them. These goals not only help to motivate me towards reaching them, but also serve as a constant reminder of the possibilities that I have when pushing myself to be my best. Whether it be the goal to score points in basketball, or to be in the Academic Hall of Fame, or to receive an academic scholarship to a top Business School, I am constantly reviewing these goals and always working hard to achieve them.In my career, I hope to have a job that I not only love but one that will constantly challenge me. By challenging myself to set stretch goals, whether it be getting a promotion, completing a difficult task, or going above and beyond the expectations of those around me, I will be able to excel in my career. If someone is not reaching to fulfill their fullest potential or accomplishing everything their skills will allow then they are wasting life changing opportunities. If someone is to do something, it should be with all the tools, energy, and strength they can to achieve the biggest and best they possibly can, and that is what I plan to do with my future job. I enjoy coming up with new ideas and thus am pursuing a career in marketing and professional sales, which would allow me to constantly challenge myself as I utilize my creative thinking skills and leadership in order to think of new ideas for different products, brands, and more. I am excited for what my future career holds for me and know that I will continue to set goals in order to succeed.
