I had high hopes entering college; I believed it was going to be a turning point in my life. Unfortunately things never work out the way you want them to, since I wasn’t able to live up to the expectations handed to me. The plan was simple; go to Bellevue College, obtain an associate degree in business then transfer to University of Washington in Seattle all while retaining a high GPA. Though I’m on track to obtaining a business associate soon, my grades so far has fail to meet expectations.…

lazy habits and no work ethic. If kids are taught by just giving minimal effort towards their tasks in their futures, they are most likely going to fail. Not only will they fail, they won’t have the experience and knowledge of what to do to overcome failure. Failing kids pushes them to give forth their best efforts, gives them experience of failing in their futures, and people learn from failing.

do something. Having a higher self-esteem can enable a person to deal with failure better than a person with low self-esteem as well. If someone with low self-esteem experiences failure, they tend to view their failure on a more global scale, often feeling that they will fail at everything they do. Rather, people with higher self-esteem are able to compartmentalize their failure and move on, rather than viewing that failure on such a large scale. A person’s view of themselves is a determining…

“Success consists of going from failure to failure without loss of enthusiasm.” Winston Churchill.

I have found that the present slips away while you are worrying about the future. We are constantly telling ourselves that if we just get through this, then everything after will be better. We forget to appreciate the moment while constantly reaching for a hypothetically more fulfilling life. Once we graduate high school, or get through a…

His goal was to be able to climb out of his social status and into Ben’s, he knew he was a failure and tried everything he could so that his son's success will not cause them to end up like him, and in those moments, he lost his grasp on reality along with his mind. To conclude, in The Death of a Salesman, Arthur Miller depict the failure of the American Dreams toward the reader, and the effects it had on the Loman family. By giving problems the reader can…

itself does not always produce. Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein offers insight through a science fiction plot of discovery and internal struggle towards success ultimately leading to the downfall of all involved. However, through the journey of multiple failures to the “success” are what develop Victor’s character despite further mistakes. The pursuit of an individual's’ desire stimulates internal growth and purpose through dedication and perseverance, but after the goal is attained it may not be…

Healing is a process that seems so unreachable during moments of grief. It is often times perceived as impossible to achieve; however, it is not as difficult as you might first believe it to be. You must keep in mind that good things take time, and time will not mend your broken pieces if you fail or refuse to progress alongside it. You ought to remember that healing does not mean pretending the hurt never happened; it means the damage no longer has power over your life or your emotions. To find…

For years’ parents have told their kids that college is a must and that you have to do it, but in The Basement of the Ivory Tower has another thought about that. Which is Professor X that explain why he feels that college is not for everyone and shares his experience of teaching people that are just not ready for that level yet. So an individual might ask themselves am I that student, or is it really that necessary to go to college just too higher myself and in reality its getting me more in…
