In this blog post, based on my experience of maintaining diligence and thoroughness even in repetitive work, I will introduce how to effectively include basic work skills in an office assistant self-introduction letter.
Growth
When I was a child, whenever my mother left the house, I would always run to her dressing table and look at everything with envy. I couldn’t touch anything because I knew I would get scolded by my mother when she came home, but I felt happy thinking about the future when I would have my own dressing table and be able to transform myself just like my mother. My mother was always pretty and beautiful, but when she sat in front of her dressing table, opening and closing the lids of the various containers, applying makeup and transforming herself over and over again, she would become as beautiful as a fairy. Whenever I went out with my mother, I felt like I was the daughter of a fairy, and I always felt very proud.
I was eager to become like my mother, but she had a clear rule that “starting to wear makeup at an overly young age will damage your skin.” She only allowed me to use mild skin lotions, simple creams, and lip products, and told me to wait until I was old enough to “transform” myself. I always wanted to have clear eyes and moist eyelashes like my mother, and I wanted to have skin with a sparkling white glow. At the time, I resented my mother for keeping the secret to her beauty to herself, but looking back now, I think it was her efforts that allowed my delicate skin to grow and flourish without damage. If it weren’t for my mother’s strict rules, which held me back from my desire to wear makeup, I would have definitely experimented with all kinds of things on my face.
School life
I remember that my mother worked hard to pass on her secrets to me so that I wouldn’t have to go through the same trials and errors as other children and learn through experience during my formative years. Even so, I wasn’t old enough to wear full makeup, so she taught me basic skin care and cleansing techniques, as well as how to bring out my natural beauty without using artificial products. Every time she passed on her knowledge to me, I felt like I was one step closer to “transformation,” and my heart would race with excitement. Some of my friends dressed up and wore makeup like adults, and it seemed as if they had flown away to a different world from their peers, but I firmly believed my mother’s words that premature adventures could be poisonous to the skin, so I was careful not to rush ahead.
My mother didn’t just say that “you’re pretty enough without makeup” like adults often do, but she explained in detail the specific reasons and characteristics that made her say so. My mother, who was always concerned with anti-aging and wrinkle care, emphasized this point, which made it even more convincing. Humans are beings who must live with the passage of time evident on their bodies, so when you are a minor and the passage of time is not yet evident on your face or body, even a little effort to emphasize your pure beauty is enough to show off the advantages of your age. At first, I thought that adults who said things like, “Why would a kid wear makeup?” were just trying to control us, but my mother’s explanation helped me gradually understand the importance of her words.
Personality
I don’t blindly pursue the charm or beauty of others, but rather strive to showcase my own unique characteristics and harmonious charm. When I first started to take an interest in my appearance, I admired celebrities and models and complained about why I wasn’t born with their looks, but I realized that there was an insurmountable gap between them and me, just as a sparrow cannot fly as high as a crane no matter how hard it flaps its wings. Once I accepted this, I was able to settle down and regain some stability. And I came to believe that in order to pursue my own beauty, even though I lacked the natural qualities of those considered beautiful, I must first understand my own characteristics and get to know myself.
I realized that if I didn’t even know the color, texture, and background of my canvas, I couldn’t create a beautiful painting by just randomly using paints and tools that looked good when others used them. This allowed me to take a more objective look at myself, whom I had thought was “inadequate” compared to others.
Values
I believe that knowing yourself is the key to victory. We often think that the more information we have about our enemies, the higher our chances of winning, but in order to implement a realistic strategy, we must first have a thorough understanding of our own situation, strengths, and tactics before we can understand our enemies. We are confident that we know ourselves better than anyone else, and we often rush headlong into the world, but when we look at ourselves objectively, we realize our mistakes. This is because we often form a distorted self-image due to unfounded confidence, arrogance, and stubbornness that prevents us from falling behind others.
Therefore, before facing the world, we must focus more on ourselves rather than others, learn to draw up objective indicators, and adopt a posture of reflection and review in order to regularly correct our distorted views. Just as it is necessary to stop and look back from time to time in order to walk straight ahead, it is also necessary to reflect on our own actions.
Career
I started my career at a cosmetics company, where I worked for a year, then moved to a retail store, where I gained two years of practical experience. After that, I worked as an administrative assistant at an office of the same company.
Reason for applying and goals after joining the company
Since I was a child, I watched my mother transform herself with makeup, and I was convinced that the countless cosmetics scattered on her dressing table had the magical power to make any woman beautiful. I looked forward to the day when I could experience that magic for myself. When I reached an age where I could use that magic myself, I decided to pursue it as more than just a hobby and seriously consider it as a career path, which led me to apply to your company.
If I am given the opportunity to work at your company, I would like to take the lead in promoting and publicizing the appeal of cosmetics, so that they can exert their full power to excite people and lead them to new changes, reviving the memories of my childhood when I used to look at my mother’s cosmetics with a pounding heart. I have not yet acquired the same magical skills as my mother, but your products, which make women more beautiful, are perfect for an aggressive future with proactive recommendations and business strategies.
