   Today I want to promote  a organization that I have been involved in for two years now, SkillsUSA.org is great organization that help individuals prepare to be Leaders in the world of work. How many people do you know that has made a decision in their life that turned them in the wrong direction in life? Unfortunately I have known a lot including myself. I find that people that have to much idle time on their hands never really get much accomplished in personal growth, professional grit, and leadership skills. Now, not all people fit into this category, but more in this group than there are in the professional group. So with that being written I honestly feel that applying oneself into this organization gives them a jump above others looking for leadership roles in the world of work. It is a partnership between the student, instructors, and industries to prepare individuals as leaders in the world of work. I would ask that if you are not familiar with  SkillsUSA.org to research it and see what it has to offer for high school and post secondary students. Share this with someone who is seeking to better their skills, be a leader, run for public office, promote organizations, and just be a responsible person.
     SkillsUSA.org is in all 50 states, to offer students to become members and to compete in the competition of their choice of study or in the Courtesy Corps of  SkillsUSA.org. This organization is for active students and instructors. It is a organization for students ran by students at chapter levels, they learn leadership, team working, community service, and how to run an organization in the Parliamentary Procedure fashion.
     Being a part of  SkillsUSA.org and SkillsUSA Fl. has been a very challenging and growth experience for me. The joy of being a winner in a competition  is just fantastic not only do you get the recognition in that field but make great contacts in the world of work. Of course this is why we reinvent ourselves is to get a better or different job that pays good for the work performed. Holding the Sergeant at Arms Officer title at MFT has truly made me want to learn more about correct structure in organizations.
    Setting goals is an important tool to drive one's  self in obtaining success, but they have to be reachable. SkillsUSA shows an individual how to go about doing this in the real time factor.







 

I hope this has raised your awareness of  SkillsUSA.org. . Check out this video at the Florida State conference.2014.  Opening ceremonies State of Florida SkillsUSA conference. The last video was taken by me on my cellphone .
