Words of wisdom
Don’t believe that you can’t achieve. I once thought about giving up when I had a bad baseball tryout and I didn’t think I would make the team. I tried my best and gave it my all. I ended making the team that day. If I had not believed in myself or given up I would not have made it. I feel strongly about these words of wisdoms because you never know what could happen if you don’t give up. Never give up in life because if you try your hardest you can achieve anything that you put your mind to.
Secondly: Always try your best. If you try your best you will succeed. I always try to do my best whether it be in school or on the baseball field. I am not the best student, but I always try my hardest and work hard to get good grades. That hard work paid off when I got my report card and got good grades. I feel strongly about this because I think you should always try your best even if you don’t think you will succeed. My grades strongly improved that marking period because I tried my hardest and worked very hard. If you try your best, your hard work will pay off and eventually good things will happen to you. That is why I always try my best in school and on the baseball field.
Finally: Stay in school. I believe if you stay in school good things will happen to you. When I try my hardest it’s mostly in school and in the sport I play. I value my education and think getting an education is very important in order to succeed. School is very important to me and it should be important to everyone else in the world, because if you stay in school you can get a good job and go to a very good college.

    Rock Bottom Quotes

    This quote can be applied to many different circumstances in your life. This is why I believe it stands out so much to me. When I first read this quote I thought about football, but then I started thinking about it in a more broad perspective. If you apply it to your job, family, sports, etcetera, it all comes back to what the quote clearly states, no matter what the situation you always have a chance to succeed. Even when you think you've hit rock bottom, if you work to better yourself and your circumstances then you have succeeded. I also see it as when others think you've failed, you can truly judge yourself on how you respond. I always judged success on winning or…

    Lastly i'm going to have a positive attitude in everything I do and try things that seem impossible. For example, when I first learned how to ride a bike it seemed impossible at first and if I gave up at the first try, it would be, but by having persistent and keep trying I started to get the hang of it. I practiced and worked on it a bit at a time and eventually it started to get easier for me. I learn from your mistakes and the more I worked the easier it got. I'm going to apply this to this year's English class because by having a positive attitude and keep on trying, I can receive the goal I want.…

    Therefore, no matter the goal you are trying to reach, always know failure comes with the enjoyment of success. If I felt like a failure after finding out I did not receive the opportunity to be accepted into the school, I would not have been able to push myself to become greater. Try and you shall succeed. If being successful or achieving a goal was easy; many people would be successful already. However, since being successful or achieving a goal takes a great deal of time and comes with failure; some people rather give up than keep on…

    In my student career, I have strongly held the belief that the single most important thing in my life is to learn, and to learn everything I am capable of. I always have said: "A genius is not a person who knows everything. A genius, is a person whom is aware of what they know, and are willing to learn more." This is my philosophy as a student, to learn at every opportunity and realize lessons can be sometimes very difficult to learn. I have come to school every day in my life that I am able, with the thought that I will learn, and keep an optimistic attitude in that sense. Optimism is by far the most important ideal to have to succeed, and I try to share optimism with my classmates and any living being around me. Optimism has kept my grades at high marks, and though they may sometimes drop due to a mistake, they always are brought back up, due to the optimism that I have learned from the…
