Success

     There are many sacrifices that need to be made to be good at something. Many people think that success comes easy. For example, when I was in 11th grade there were five starters on my basketball team. However, the people who worked the hardest got on the court. One girl who could had the most talent on the team did not work hard. When it came down to game time she wondered why she didn't start. The coaches told her that she did not put the work in like the girls who started. That game lead to her lifetime decisions. She didn't work hard enough to get into college and now she is staying with her father with no job. This shows what not working hard can do to you. If you put in the work success will come knocking at your door, however, if you don't you will not be in a good situation.

     Another example, last year I had a challenging anatomy class and I wasn't doing very well at the beginning of the semester. However, I constantly asked questions and was always assertive in class. This caused me to pull my grade up and also gain my teachers respect by the end of the course. Working hard always has a great outcome. Many people need to start looking at what success really is and fighting to they get there.
