Poverty Is Not A Hindrance To Have Success

Poverty is not a hindrance to have success that’s what my role model said.

He came from a very poor family with 16 siblings. He is the 5th child. He is from Anda, Pangasinan. His father is a carpenter while his mother is a loving housewife.

He studied at West Central Elementary School. Because they don’t have enough money, they can’t afford new uniforms. The old uniforms of his brothers are the one he used.

He work hard for his family and for himself to achieve his goals. He sale pandesal and balot. He also became a scavenger to support his studies.

In his secondary times, he studied at Dagupan City National High School, he always belong to the first section from 1st year to 4th year because he is an intelligent student.

He works first before he goes to college. He work as a construction worker with his father so that he could study. He studied at University of Pangasinan. He work at day and study at night. In his higher years he had some troubles about his schedules so he did cross enroll to Luzon Colleges and it is because some subjects are not offered at University of Pangasinan. He transferred at Luzon Colleges on his next semester so that he can work at day. After 6 years and a half of hard-working he graduated with a degree, Bachelor of Science in Civil Engineering, He continue, to help his father, until his father give him a solo projects, to have more experience in construction. And because he is earning he didn’t find time to take his board examination. He tried to apply in some companies but he was disappointed because the company are looking for a registered engineer. So he save money for his review and he finally take his board examination on May 1986 hoping that the results would be released on November.
But because of Edsa Revolution it takes 11 months when the results are released. He passed the board exam on May 1987. He is now a full pledge registered Civil Engineer.

    What is poverty? Poverty is not being able to afford basic needs. The poverty line in America is different third-world countries. Some people who are in poverty here would be considered rich somewhere else. A lot of people confuse need and want. They buy things they want instead of what they need. People take the things they have for granted. For example, if they have a house, they want a bigger one, but there are some people out there who just want somewhere to live.…

    The reality of poverty is a silent Killer that is ignored by most but by opening our eyes and taking a stand against poverty we can live in a poverty free world. “In addition, the government isn’t doing as much as they should be but in America it’s helping people stay in a home when they lose it all such as president Obama has set an act that provides income support but still there are still 45 million people living in poverty who can’t get access to these benefits” (U.S. Poverty and Inequality). Furthermore, some might say that people living in poverty are in poverty because they chose to be poor. Many rich people said that all poor people should work or look for a job that helps them live better or their lazy to work. “Rich people say that because they realized that every person that is rich has worked hard to be rich, they also realized that if poor people start to work hard like they did they wouldn’t live in poverty” (Counter Argument Poverty). As many people say people are poor because they chose to be poor, rich people think this because all the successful people think that everyone’s life is the same as theirs but it’s not true because when someone is born in poverty they spend most of their life in poverty, and their adult life. “In addition, the cause of…

    Delusion of Poverty

    • 1137 Words
    • 5 Pages

    Many people will use the excuse of this is the way I was born or this is my environment and I cannot change it. Through these statements it shows that most of the time it is because of your own mindset the reason you are where you are today. We have all heard, you are where you are today because of what you did yesterday. If you didn’t change or plan ahead yesterday, then you can expect today to be different until you change. A poverty mindset can manifest itself in a lack of vision for the future. You end up stuck in a financial rut, perhaps working a job that barely meets the financial needs of your household. When you lack vision, it’s hard for you to believe that God would give you an idea to take your household to prosperity. And if God does give you a big idea, you either will not follow-up on it, or you will find a way to sabotage it. Your poverty mindset keeps you stuck where you are. If a person feels less than others then he will not feel deserving. If he does not feel deserving, his life is based on desperation and wanting, rather than from joy and abundance. If one feels abundant, he will have abundance. If one feels desperate and wanting, he will expand the poverty in his life.…
