The School of Athens: Who do you think you are?


Honestly, I think hold the traits of leadership as well as logical thinking. A person who holds these common features is Plato, the man who stands as the focal point of the painting. Being a mentor to one of the most popular greek philosophers, Plato holds the trait of strong leadership and the skills of teaching. I feel like I have a similar trait because during group projects and tasks, I think I'm one of the members who attempts to manage the group and make sure that they're on task. Plato was widely known as one who wrote many dialogues for his students to learn from, and one of his dialogue subjects was logic. Plato was a person who based his thoughts on logic, and I honestly think that I also have a sense of logic when I look at things. During schoolwork I always attempt to place logic into my answers and see whether it would make sense. I feel as if me and Plato seem to be very similar, and that he represents me the best in the School of Athens.
