My Heroic Journey: Magical Weapons

My magical weapons that I posses are that of curiosity, self-regulation, and teamwork.

These traits will allow me to be successful in my heroic journey and get me to be where I want to

be. These magical weapons affect my life daily as for each one of these I have to go through and

experience everyday.

For curiosity, it runs through me everyday and everywhere. There isn’t a day in my life

that curiosity hasn’t struck me whether it be from discovering new things or wanting to

understand more from one thing. Having this strength keeps my mind active, always allowing me

to ask questions and find new solutions. It allows me to be observant of everything, keeping me

open to new and different things, bringing new opportunities and experiences into my life. It also

brings excitement into my life. But with the new found excitement, my self-regulation comes

into play. It brings me to face all my actions with integrity. With every decision I make, self-

regulation takes an important role, keeping me from doing things that should not be done and

doing the right thing as often as possible even if it is not the most popular option. I always

thought of self-regulation to be that of keeping one’s self in check at every moment and this

comes true to me as I am one to think before they act. This turns me to my last weapon,

teamwork. Teamwork is incorporated everyday into my life, whether it be for a small group of

friends or a club team where there are many others. This trait creates a synergy within that allows
 2

me to become more efficient in everyday tasks, making the life of every person involved that

much easier. Me being involved in my high school soccer team, teamwork is essential as having

it would benefit all of us as each one of us all strive for the same girl.

With these traits, they allow me to become successful in many things. The impact of

these magical weapons in my future life will be enormous, as each one of these will be important

for everyday tasks but also for the career I am choosing to be in. Everyday, i will be improving

these traits as they are essential to me and the success I choose to have.
