It is hard for me to take no for an answer if there is not enough evidence as to why I am wrong. I am very determined and love to have fun and make all situations better if they are not going the best. I am constantly active and always positive during everything, even when it is hard, and I am not afraid to speak up for myself in any situation. I have demonstrated leadership in many ways, but the most I know has impacted everyone was my being captain of the football team. It took a lot in the offseason for everyone to understand that we have to come into every game knowing we can beat anyone in our way. Being a leader is a tough job because you have to look up to yourself and have a whole bunch of other people looking up to you as well. I am constantly being a leader and don&#8217;t realize it until I sit down and think about it. When I am in school, everyone is always looking up to me. When the teacher asks questions and my classmates don&#8217;t know the answer, I try to help them out if they can not understand how the teacher is saying it.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group is-content-justification-center is-nowrap is-layout-flex wp-container-core-group-is-layout-94bc23d7 wp-block-group-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\" datatext=\"\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"240\" height=\"320\" src=\"https:\/\/eportfolio.siue.edu\/gregory-thomas\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/11\/2022\/10\/IMG_8326-Small.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-124\" srcset=\"https:\/\/eportfolio.siue.edu\/gregory-thomas\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/11\/2022\/10\/IMG_8326-Small.jpeg 240w, https:\/\/eportfolio.siue.edu\/gregory-thomas\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/11\/2022\/10\/IMG_8326-Small-225x300.jpeg 225w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 240px) 100vw, 240px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\" datatext=\"\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"240\" height=\"320\" src=\"https:\/\/eportfolio.siue.edu\/gregory-thomas\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/11\/2022\/10\/IMG_7920-Small.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-126\" srcset=\"https:\/\/eportfolio.siue.edu\/gregory-thomas\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/11\/2022\/10\/IMG_7920-Small.jpeg 240w, https:\/\/eportfolio.siue.edu\/gregory-thomas\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/11\/2022\/10\/IMG_7920-Small-225x300.jpeg 225w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 240px) 100vw, 240px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>My name is Greg, and I am a hardworking individual.
