Personal question · Resilience, Self-awareness
The everyday load
Not every strain at home is a crisis. Many people carry a steady load, such as caring for a relative, minding younger siblings or bringing in income, alongside their studies or job. Think about a stretch when that routine, week after week, became more than you could carry.
The two questions
- 1Tell us about a time an ongoing, everyday responsibility at home wore you down alongside your studies or job. What did you notice about how the stress was affecting you?
- 2Describe a limit you set, or chose not to set, with your family in order to cope. What would you do differently now?

- Resilience
- Recovers from setbacks, manages stress constructively, and learns from failure.
