I had to read this in high school, and it is my favorite book! I have re-read it several time since then, and each time I find something new to love about it! It has had a significant impact on my life.

How I did it
It made me
stronger 
How I did it: It was a required book to read when I was in high school, and one of the few that I couldn't put down! I don't think that I would have ever read it if had not been assigned, but I'm glad that it was otherwise I may have never discoverd this gem of a book. Read how I did it…
It made me
Confident
How I did it: It was hard to find an internship for what I want to do where I live because the industry I want to go into really isn't here. I just contacted the few places that existed and looked on my school's career website to see if there were any available. I found, applied, and started about a month ago! It made me more confident and sure that this is the field that I want to go into after I graduate, and I'm learning more about what exactly I do… Read how I did it…
It made me
brave
How I did it: I don't think that I will ever be completely over my fears, but acknowledging that they do exist has helped me to deal with them. For example, one of my biggest fears is that I am going to die alone. This has forced me to be a better friend and build strong relationships with the people I know so that if I do die, I know that there are people out there who will remember me. Read how I did it…
