What I found Challenging last year in PPP

Reflecting on PPP last year there were aspects I found challenging that I could improve on this year.

Last year we had to brand ourselves. I found this difficult as I had to look at myself as a designer and how to promote myself which I have never done before. I found it hard to come up with a idea that I loved and best represented me, but by the end of the year I had some notebooks created.

We also had to do a presentation on ourselves. I found this incredible daunting as I have a slight fear of public speaking. I found making the presentation okay and that I had plenty of things to talk about, but the actual speaking and getting the timing right frightened me. I spent a lot of timing practicing my presentation as I felt I would be less nervous. After my presentation I was very pleased with how it went and felt a lot more confident. However this year I want to carry on improving my public speaking skills so I do not get so nervous before hand.

I hope that this year I can really know what I want to focus on next year and what I want my next steps to be after I graduate.
