I am applying to FLI because I believe that it would expand my view on what a leader is and what a leader does. I believe that going to FLI would be an opportunity for me to grow not only as a leader but also as a person. Being active and taking responsibility for ones future is a big part of being a good leader, this program will be my opportunity to take my future into my own hands and change it for the better. Personally, taking positive risks and experiencing new things helps me develop leadership skills and that is why I am applying for FLI, because I want to be the best leader that I can be and this program will help me achieve that. From this experience I hope to gain a new sense of inspiration to lead and desire for doing good. After
