Thomas Jefferson once said, “Action will delineate and define you.” Pride in your actions, pride in your words, and pride in yourself all make for real success and Thomas Jefferson knew, and lived with that mindset. Being proud in everything we do as Americans is the foundation of success. Your personal best is all you can ever accomplish and once you’ve done that, you can rest easy in knowing great rewards come with hard work. We see proof of this in every aspect of American life, a lifestyle that was built from the ground up on
I have had to work for what I want in life and understand the value of money and how much work it takes to earn it. I pride myself very much of my work ethic without it I would not be who I am today. Work is a very important part of my life and I know you have work for what you want. For example my brother has cerebral palsy and growing up with this has taught me a lot. This puts many different burdens on my family and we all have to work together to get through it.
I use the word resilient because although the doctors, and his parents, and lots of other folks were saying that he can't do this or that; in the end he ended up being successful and completing every task they said that he won't be able to do. 3. How has Doodle’s characterization set the mood for the story? Doodle’s personality set the mood for the story because from the beginning of the text Doodle did things in spite of making his brother and family proud. 4.
The war had greatly impacted his father’s personality, attitude and parenting style. Therefore Spiegelman’s personality and lifestyle were then influenced by his father's personality and parenting style. His father loved showing off how handy he was since that was one of his survival methods during the war. This made Spiegelman fearful to fix things because he was being compared to his father. Spiegelman felt he was always over shadowed by his father regardless of his own accomplishment because his father survived the war and he could not compete with that.
Another example is of Paul’s honour towards Herr Keller. Despite their relationship beginning with a rocky start, he begins to see him not as a villain, but as a god. As it continually developed Paul put in even more work and ‘would play till my hands ached.’ Although his career failed, Keller taught Paul that through dedication, goals can be
He is a man that has achieved so much during his career but at the same time excels at every project he undertakes. Like every great leader, he was not afraid to reinvent the old and add a new dimension to a previous way of thinking. There is little doubt that he will also excel
Emotional memory – I have been called to the principal’s office and have my dad yelled at me because of my actions, except he was not as easy going as my character. I also channeled in the times when I was captain of my wrestling team and yelled at my team mates during practice. Sub- text- it was a fun character to play, even though I am young it was nice to play an older character who take responsibility not for only his actions but for his sons
I think this is the most important character you can have because it will push you through life and help you become a more reliable and better person. This belief has come from a lot of adult figures in my life but mostly my dad. My dad is always telling me that even if the situation is as bad as it can get you should still always
When Dax said he was happy to be alive it gave Dr. Larson reassurance for his actions years before. He also claimed that Dax had many opportunities to take his own life after the treatment, which he failed to do so. I see this as the most prolific positive for keeping Dax alive. He was able to continue seeing his family and enjoy being alive given his quality of life. It is difficult to put yourself into the situation Dax was dealing with, the only way to understand would require one of us experiencing the pain he was going through.
Dad always takes the “high road.” He taught me the values of honesty, responsibility and loyalty. He not only taught these things but lives them. I see how he cares about mom and treats her with respect; how he treats people he works with, how he is honest, even if he doesn’t come out ahead. When he retired last year, it was a great thing for me. I had someone I love and look to every day at home.
