Kyler Gray: (22, 1L, University of Florida, Gainesville, FL ) People are deemed effective by how well they can overcome the hurdles and adversity thrown their way. My idea of an effective person is the one who can lift themselves out of the trenches, knowing that even with a few lost battles, an effective person knows that they may still win the war. All of the adversity we face in life comes temporarily; having personal self-development not only to acknowledge that but also to use it as a stepping stone to future success defines how effective a person and leader you are.

Giorgi Beruashvilli: (22, Masters in Management students, University of Central Florida, Summer 2021 graduate, Orlando, Fl. ) A person is effective when they have the internal motivation to compete with oneself. It's competing against past yourself. When you set the benchmarks, you compete only against who you were yesterday. Usually, in the workplace or any other environment, we say people who against others lack that one component is not as successful and are not good team players. People who compete against themselves are better team players. You can connect with Giorgi on LinkedIn at https://www.linkedin.com/in/giorgi-beruashvili/.
