Every person has a passion that fuels him or her to achieve greater things. What starts off as a small spark eventually becomes a growing flame that paves the path for an individual to discover his or her purpose in life. For me, that very passion is campaigning and working to make a difference in the lives of others. Campaigning not only did help me make a change, but I developed my skill sets such as confidence in leading projects, working in a team, and public speaking. Campaigning helped me grow as an individual, it helped me visualize a pathway for my future–thus it gave me a purpose for my life.
