Passion can be a strong word, but it’s a strong emotion. Passion is what drives people, keeps them motivated. Determination and passion go hand in hand. I have a lot of passion for guard. When I first joined, I was so bad that I just wanted to quit. I thought I was horrible. I kept trying and trying but it still hadn’t clicked for me yet. I had bruises up and down my arms, cuts on my wrists, and I struggled to catch everything. Other people told me I was okay, but I wanted to be good. I was determined to be great, and now I’m going to strive for awesome. That passion and determination for this activity grew stronger and stronger, as I was trying so hard to be good at it. I felt like quitting, but deep down I knew I wouldn’t because I had already …show more content…
Commitment is the one thing that some people struggle with from time to time. We all have our moments where we want to give up but we can’t in to that emotion. I’ve seen people quit just because they didn’t like their drill, or because they didn’t want to put in the time to do the work. Quitting isn’t always the answer. Being physically unable to do it is a different story. Last winter was so stressful for me, simply because I started the season late and I had to learn both drill and work. It was my second season in so I wasn’t “new” but I was still young. Sometimes I lack in self-confidence when it comes to guard, so I was honestly terrified. There were moments where I was super stressed out, but I didn’t want to let my team down so I pushed through. But having that opportunity that could’ve easily been given to someone else was so special to me. I thank you Mr. Brian Jones for giving me the opportunity to be a part of an amazing team. I was able to earn that medal because of you. I wouldn’t have been able to do that without your help. Same for this winter. I am so terribly sorry that I could not finish this season. But I just didn’t know when I would be any better, plus there are a lot of other health and personal reasons that contributed to me not continuing this season. But I will forever be grateful that you gave me the opportunities that you did. Everyone calls you dad, and I know it’s a joking matter, but you are an amazing man Mr. Jones. You are the best band director ever!! And I will work on my commitment, but I didn’t continue just because I didn’t want to do it anymore. I love guard with all of my heart. Sometimes I want to cry when I watch the videos, because I wish I was up there with them performing. I miss it so much, and hopefully I will be better by this
I hope that you are doing well and thank you for agreeing to be my mentor. I am writing in regards to a project I’m doing for my English 2 Honors class. This project is called the Passion Project. For this project, we spent a year learning about a topic that interests us or something that we are passionate about. At the end of the year, we demonstrate the outcome of our project by presenting it to our peers.
I believe your choice is what makes you. We all have a choice in our life. That can be how we act, how we will feel when we wake up to how our actions will affect our day. Everyone has a choice in this life. My choice was to choose happiness. Happiness is what keeps my mind positive, what makes my positive attitude rub off on people. Growing up thinking I never had a choice that people around me choose my choices. Being me, I let people around me choose my choices for me. How I was going to act or feel to this day. I never thought about making my our choices until I started telling myself that I want my attitude to rub off on people. I needed to start making my own choices. I decided to make the choice to choose to be happy. All the negative thoughts I have been thinking, and all the negative people I was around needed to change. People I hung around think so negative about each other they never have enough time to try and make a change. I've learned over the past year that how acting and the choices I make affect me so much. Happiness is what brought my dark days to sunny days. My negative thoughts to positive thoughts. Happiness is what brought me close to some of the amazing people I've
If choices were easy to make, well let's just say it would make everything easier. If choices were easy to make than the world would fly by and you wouldn't think twice about it. It would be like a small wind drifting through your hair or a slow and steady stream with no bumpy surprises. But we all know the world ends up to be a big volcano waiting to erupt under your feet in suspicion and awaiting the element of surprise, shaking your body with good and bad choices.
Admitting to ourselves that we’re bored can be pretty tough as adults. Being bored is something that kids complain about; as adults, we’ve been taught to think that being bored is bad. If you’re bored, you’re probably not being productive or “doing something” with your life.
It's all about staying focused! The road to success is long, tiring, and painful and lots of time you just want to give up and quite but you have to stay focused on the main prize and think about your goal you are chasing.
My name is Breanna Weiss, and I’m eighteen years old. I am from Cleveland, Ohio. I am also the oldest of eight children. I live with my hero, and she is my mom. I am attending Cleveland Job Corps because I would like to work in the medical field. I’ve wanted to work in the medical field since I was a little girl. This has been my dream for a while now.
One of the things I’m motivated by and passionate about is softball. I've been playing softball since I was little. It’s something about the rush it gives me, when you're up at the plate waiting for the perfect pitch or in the outfield about to catch a fly ball to get the last out of an inning. Playing softball has taught me many things that I can use in my life. One of the main things I will remember is perseverance. Throughout my years of softball, I’ve faced many difficulties that have made me think about quitting: coaches yelling, the long, hot, but sometimes cold practices, and all the losses we’ve had in the last 3 years.
Being creative is a major part of who I am and always have been. As early in my life as I can remember, I have always been exposed to art. Whether it was painting, drawing, coloring, or making homemade gifts, it was the one thing I truly desired. Although I am a creative person, I am also more of an introvert than an extrovert. I have taken many personality and career tests and I have always been pointed in the direction of becoming a graphic designer. I never really thought about graphic design as a profession until my teachers and experiences I had through out my high school career helped confirm my decision to continue in that direction.

“The desire to create is one of the deepest yearnings of the human soul.” said Dieter F. Uchtdorf. For as long as I can remember I’ve felt most at peace when I’m being creative. When I look back at pictures from my childhood a majority of them are of me rather painting, coloring, or making play houses out of old cardboard boxes. It was never something I thought much about except that it was just what I always enjoyed doing. So many aspects of my life have changed since I was just a toddler but, my creativity is one aspect that has never left my life.
Throughout a person’s life he or she will have to make a countless amount of important decisions. It is what they learn from those decisions that makes them a better person in the end. In my life I have made decisions that has helped me become better and some that has made me worse. I have learned many lessons from the bad decisions to make me a better person.
Muffled pop music shakes the thin walls, sweat-drenched zombies cross the greenways, and I, I sit in the living room with the lights off experiencing a mild existential crisis, with pen in hand. I consider what I think I am, how I think I accomplished great tasks, and what creativity might be. I searched in for more complex relationships, but that failed. I turned to the simple, and found the answer to all three of my questions: being different. To be creative is to be different. I am different, I attribute my progress in life to acting different, and I consider creativity as simply being different.
Motivation is not hype. Due to superficial knowledge and insufficient ability, many so called 'motivators' or motivational speakers design and offer formats that merely hype up participants but offer nothing that is sustainable. How often have you felt inspired by the presence of a charismatic speaker and left the room determined to change your life only to return to earth with a bump the first time you failed to appease a disgruntled customer, meet a sales target or communicate effectively with your staff or friends?
Golf is a game of passion, frustration and integrity. Many think that golf is a simple game and they would be right in many ways, but simple and easy are two different things that often get confused. Golf could be considered an art form such as when a painter has to use the correct technique, bushes and paint a golfer has to use the correct technique, clubs and accessories. It is a game that needs constant work you will never master it this frustrates most but is why I have such a passion for the game. There is always room for improvement this is what the famous Bobby Jones was meaning when he said “No-one will ever have golf under his thumb. No round ever will be so good it could not have been better. Perhaps this is why golf is the greatest of games. You are not
