Hi @jassennessaj. This would be my first comment here at Steemit and there's no better way to start my journey than sharing the best experience i had in the year 2017.

Trust the process. No matter how difficult it is, just trust the process. Soon you will get to see the fruit of your labor. My mind kept on telling me that for the past 2 years.

This is Tech Tower, a 12-storey commercial building for a BPO company. It is my very first project as a Civil Engineer since I passed the CE licensure examination. The construction of this building started last February 2016 and it was in March 2016 when i got hired by the team to be their Rebar Engineer. I was tasked to be the guy when it comes to reinforcement bars of this concrete designed structure.

Just as we all know, the four corners of the classroom is so much different compared to the real world of construction. Adjustments are needed to work things out and from there it was a roller coaster ride. I've been up & down emotionally, left to right mentally, and black & white physically, yeah literally!

Sleepless nights. On the spot decisions. Puzzling problems. Handling of different personalities. Those are just a few things that make me want to quit. But hey, seeing the project build up, it pushes you to strive harder, learn quicker and be of control.

At long last, just this November 2017, the masterpiece has been made. The blood, sweat and tears were all worth it. Its all worth the wait, all worth the pain.

I already knew in College I had that leadership skill but not to the point where I can lead a number of men who are older than me and guide them to that ultimate goal. Leadership was a key factor, but teamwork and respect should also go hand in hand. Without the team, from the labors, steelmen up to the project manager, nothing would come to fruition. The best thing that happened to me in 2017 was not the fruit of labor, but the process itself.
