Nasra's Life Map

Siblings

Siblings! (10/9/2019)

  • I have 2 other siblings, but I'm the middle child (pictured left to right is oldest to youngest)

  • Being the middle-child, I always served as the mediator in arguments between the eldest and youngest.

  • By having a dislike for confrontation, I always settled arguments between them peacefully.

Memory

  • playing peacemaker in many arguments between my siblings has shaped my personality today
  • In the present, I tend to avoid confrontation as much as possible
  • When I find myself in predicaments I make sure to listen to all sides and opinions of others before coming to a consensus.
  • One memory I recall of my siblings is my 18th birthday. My sister came home from college to surprise me and my entire family had a small party.

Conflict

Conflict

Oak island beach trip 7/25/18

We had an argument on where to get dessert after dinner. half the family wanted to go to a cookie shop and the other half wanted ice cream. To solve the issue, we decided to eat ice cream this day and get cookies the next :)

  • When people in my family disagree, we try to find a solution as quickly as possible to avoid longstanding arguments

  • Normally, one person in the family will serve as a mediator of the conflict.

  • This person has no bias towards anyone and listens to both sides of who is arguing

  • When the argument involves the entire family, we sit down and discuss what what wrong and why, then reach an appropriate solution as a group

  • Conflict was discouraged among my siblings. As soon as my parents even began to hear an argument brewing, they would immediately extinguish it

Financial

My first car! (11/24/2017)

FINANCIAL

Fincancial

  • Money lpayed an important role in my family, but my parents ensured it was never always the topic of conversation or worry
  • financial issues discussed: how to balance three siblings in college at once, mother's nursing schools, dad's retirement
  • Mom and dad had most input into financial decisions, but before as siblings got older, we began to be included as well.

Authority

The 2 authority figures in my life: My mom and my dad

AUTHORITY

  • Due to Somali tradition, my parents are the authoritative figures, with more emphasis on my dad.

  • My dads leadership style: compassionately firm

  • My mom also played a huge role in disciplining me as a child

  • My moms leadership style: compassionately firm

  • My mom's leadership style impacted me because it influences how I approach sitations of leading today. I am firm with my words, yet empathetic of other's thoughts and feelings.

  • Although sometimes I did not want to agree with with my parents, their authoritative decisions were always right in the end.

GOOOO DEACS!

Communication

My college decision day! (4/20/20)

Communication

COMMUNICATION

  • Communication in my family extremely important
  • matters in my household are solved through sit-down discussion
  • We have a policy of never raising your voice to get your point across
  • Decisions are made based on the benefit of those involved
  • This shaped my communication skills with others immensely
  • I utilize an indoor voice when others have different opinions , even if I feel they are wrong
  • I always make sure everyone is heard, so an argument cannot be one-sided

Work

My first job was a cashier at Ingles! (7/11/2018)

Work

  • During my childhood, my father worked as a project manager at Dish Network. He worked hard because he was dedicated to his position.
  • My mother was in nursing school for most of my childhood. Being born in a different country, she had to work harder than usual to succeed.
  • My dad loved his job because it gave him a sense of purpose. He enjoyed managing others and teaching new workers how to be successful.
  • My mom struggled through nursing school, but persevered because she knew her purpose in life was to help the ill get better. My mom has now been a successful RN for 6 years.
  • Early messages I took from my parents were to never give up on what you want, because hard work and dedication wins every time.
  • When I was 16, I got my first cashier job to learn better money management from my own hard-earned money.

BIRTH (10/10/2001)

  • Born in Loganville , Georgia
  • The community was a homy, close-knit, suburban town
  • neighbors were friendly and outgoing
  • The family of 5 I was born into was also close-knit. We are a very emotionally opened group of individuals
  • From early childhood, my mother always tells me I was an active child. She tells many stories of how I would climb onto tables to dance to music.

Temperament and Emotions

Temperament and emotions

  • In my family, emotions were visibly encouraged to be felt
  • every member was allowed and encouraged to express whatever they were feeling
  • when thinking about my childhood, I most strongly recall carefree happiness from discovering life
  • I was often described as dramatic, emotional, yet happy as a child
