Personal Narrative: My Personal Beliefs

Decent Essays
Everyone has a belief that helps them achieve their goals. My personal belief is not giving up and always giving 100% effort. These beliefs had helped me get through some difficulties throughout my education prior to college. Some examples of when I have put my beliefs into practice is during 6th grade in english class, and in 10th grade in my chemistry class.
One subject that I am weak in is in english. I was never that good in english. English class was generally boring and hard back then. By the end the semester I got my report card. My grade was very poor. The grade I have received was a failing grade. My parents and I were not pleased about this grade. After I received my report card, I started to stay after class in order to receive some

    I have always struggled with my grades. It was hard balancing grades and extracurricular activities. Over the past couple of years I have set goals for myself in my classes. I always pushed myself to work my hardest even in classes that I felt I'm not naturally skilled at like math. But for some reason I was compelled to take Pre-Calculus.…

    In life, people face decisions that can change life, either in a positive way or in a negative one. In my life, there’re some times that I challenged an idea and I’ve got to stop and to think what decision would be the best for me. Any choice would be a path to reach an important goal in my life, which is live abroad. So, I’ve got to decide either to stay in Brazil or come over to United States, specifically United States, leaving my lovely mother at home. But I have overcome it all so far.…

    Decision is the word I chose to explain my experiences of how I became and who I am. I want to be different from my brother, uncles and the rest of the family. I want to be an example for my Dad and Mom, even if my decisions are hard to take, because I can remember the first conversation with my Mom about dropping out of school and explaining why I have to do that, how I was going to deal with that decision and asking her to support my decision so she can help me explain it to my Dad. Well, the conversation with my Mom was so easy always,never forget how Mom is so understandable she always help me alot…

    Neglecting Religion Family trips, vacations and roadtrips are always a fun thing to do with family. Even if it’s just going out of town for the day, going camping for the weekend or even leaving the State or Country for a few days or weeks. When going on these trips, you usually expect the best of it and don’t seem to think of the negatives, like something terrible happening. I myself have been on family vacation and roadtrips many times before. My family and I always have a great time when going on these trips and never expect or try to think of anything bad happening.…

    Having found myself in dicey debates with myself regarding commas that would satisfy the need for a mild pause or the full stop that would “totally” serve the same purpose; the fictional yearnings for an existence that would have an unbiased, yet debugging nature that would clarify and put an end to subtle, tricky-little-things have always hovered around my writing table. And here I am, many years later, looking at an opportunity to help a fellow Engineer or a burgeoning scientist shape his/her highly rational thought into a more linguistically cohesive form. The grueling English Grammar classes back in high school has slowly, but steadily helped me build a firm grip on the language. My experience as a freelance writer for organizations and…

    My biggest failure was in my AP Language & Composition class during my junior year in high school when I received a C on my report card for the first time. Grades were important in my house not because I have immigrant parents who valued grades over everything else, but because I put so much meaning in getting good grades. When I was little, I made a correlation between higher grades and success later on in life. I carried this belief with me when I started high school and still have pieces of the belief that remained. I enjoyed the idea of grades measuring your intelligence or even your worth as a student; to me it was a constant reminder to others and myself that I am considered “smart”.…

    My personal core values and beliefs as an individual are kindness, honesty, persistence, lifelong learning, security, family, and success in achieving my goals. I use these values and beliefs to make personal decisions and live my every day life. I believe it is important as a health care leader to be a caring individual, to know what you should regarding the details/ functionality of the business, and to be able to communicate effectively. I feel that my personal and professional philosophies are in harmony because my personal values overlap the driving forces behind being a great leader in a health care industry. I must add, the qualities that make a good leader cannot be turned off at the end of shift, but should continue to be demonstrated…

    I was 23 before I was diagnosed with Attention Deficit Disorder. As far back as Elementary school I knew that there was something “off” in the way that I processed information. That my ability to do well academically was somehow hindered by not having certain tools that I needed, tools I wasn’t even aware existed. In high school, I began to augment my deficits with strengths. Where my grades were lacking I made up for it through creativity; I excelled at art and photography.…

    April 22nd, 2014, it was supposed to be like any other day for James. Wake up, eat breakfast, go to his job, return home to his family, sleep, rinse and repeat. It was like this for the longest time, day after day the same process; however, today would be different. James woke up, munched on donuts with coffee, and arrived to work with just a few minutes to spare despite needing to attend an early meeting. He was unable to remember; it seemed to be a trend lately and the boss certainly was not appreciating the lack of profession.…
