I first got to know him when we were working on a group project together. At that time, what really stood out to me was that he always knew what needed to be done first, and he rarely left things until the last minute. He makes plans for both big and small things, such as trips, work schedules, and even his daily routine. Before making any important decision, he usually takes time to think things through, instead of rushing into it. He also likes to break big tasks down into smaller steps, which makes everything feel more manageable. Compared with people who prefer to decide things on the spot, he tends to plan ahead, and that’s why things often run more smoothly when he’s involved. Personally, I really admire this quality in him. Working with him makes me feel more at ease, because I know things are usually under control. If I had to say one thing, I’d say he’s influenced me to become more organised in my own life as well.
