<\/a>\r\n\r\nAnd on top of all the leadership talk, here are some more reasons why I\u2019ll be going to Leading Together:<\/strong>\r\n\r\nCelebrate 2019<\/strong> - why not start off the new year and new semester with some\r\ninspiration and reflection on how to lead throughout the new year, by leading myself to this conference.\r\n\r\nChallenge my own thinking<\/strong> - there\u2019s a limit to my thoughts, knowledge and perspectives, because even when I think I got it all, I don\u2019t. That\u2019s why it\u2019s important for me to challenge my thinking by having discussions with others, especially when there are spaces that encourage them, like Leading Together. I can\u2019t know everything, and why should I try to, when there\u2019s so many people with diverse experiences and knowledge that I can reach out to and learn from.\r\n\r\nMake new connections<\/strong> - this can apply to many different things, whether it be connecting ideas, connecting experiences or connecting with people. With the new ideas I learn, I can connect them to ideas that I\u2019ve learned before. Also, attending this conference will be a new experience for me that I can connect to other experiences, past and new. And in terms of people, any person I meet, I can learn from them and who knows? Perhaps after this one day together, they may become a friend for life. The possibilities are infinite.\r\n\r\nDevelop some skills<\/strong> - there\u2019s so much that I can learn in one day, and I think that Leading Together will have a lot to teach me. During the day, I hope that I can practice some of my own leadership skills, such as networking and collaboration. And since I\u2019ll be alongside other students\/leaders, I\u2019m excited to support them and cheer them on. Woo!![\"\u201cIt\u2019s](\"http:\/\/blogs.studentlife.utoronto.ca\/lifeatuoft\/files\/2018\/11\/\u201cIt\u2019s-your-reaction-to-adversity-not-adversity-itself-that-determines-how-your-life\u2019s-story-will-develop.\u201d-1-300x251.png\")
