The Person That I Most Admire
The people that I admire most are my parents. They are those people who do everything with excellence and tenacity, and they putting their heart to everything they do. My parents are extremely positive in their thinking and actions. Also, they had the courage to educate and guide their children in the best way. These are just a few qualities that my parents are possess. So, for their tenacity, positivity and courage they are an example to follow in my life. My parents are tenacious entrepreneurs. They always have projects to help those who need it most. They put their love and dedication in to all the projects they have. For example, Two years ago they had the project to help low-income seniors with the food they need each month, in the city where I grew up in Mexico. Although, they facing some problems, for example in the economic area they faced the problem of not having enough economic funds. But, my parents are tenacious and never give up. So, they worked very hard for this project, and they have the idea to invited other people to participate. So, people responded positive and now because of their tenacity the project is working. When I talk about positive thinking, I talk about my parents. They think that everything we wants to do we can do it. They are in their early seventies and they are still learning and being updated on the progress the world has. For example they try to learn about technology. Not only for themselves but, they also want their children to improve, and to continue studying. They say that our brain is built to learn something new every day. In addition, I believe that for this reason I continue to studying. I will follow my parents’ example and believe that the best is yet to come. My parents had the courage to get us out of any tough situation. For example one day my oldest brother was accused erroneously of breaking the law in this country. Although my parents don’t speak English they came to this country to defend their son.

    I would not have been able to enjoy nearly the amount of academic success I have experienced were it not for the work of my parents, and the many educators who supported me along the way. It is because of them I started college at 16. My cultural upbringing gave me a love for hard work, and the motivation to always strive for more than my grandparents could have hoped to achieve. It is impossible to undervalue the effect these factors have had on me. They have, in no small part, made me who I am…

    Ever since I was young, my parents expected excellence. At the time, I did not enjoy the high standards they set for me, but I cannot thank them enough now. Ever since I was around five years old, we worked hard. We mulched the beds of roses every summer, stacked colossus piles of firewood, painted the barn, shoveled embankments of snow that covered the driveway every morning, baled the hay for the horses, and anything that was needed of my sisters and me.…

    A Person Who I Admire

    • 833 Words
    • 4 Pages

    A person who I admire is an interesting topic. I believe you can admire more than one person. A typical admiration I have seen is when people boy, are admiring a very famous singer, actor etc. although it is typical, it is still a good admiration because you can use that person as your role model or idol. Fx. If your role model is a sportsman, then you can admire his performing skills, and maybe learn something from him or her. But trough my life I have admired many persons, friends, older people, teachers, etc. All these people have given me experiences and personal abilities which I have acquired with help from them. My opinion is that I cannot admire one person specially. When I admire someone I respect the person’s character. After my experience I also admire someone when I am in his presence. A person who can change a bad day to a good day, fx my mother. My mother is defiantly one of my top 3 list over admired persons. Just imagine without your mother you would not exist. Everyone should admire how housemothers are struggling to raise there children’s. I am indeed of her proud of my mother, it is because of her that I am that what I am today. When I always have been in a bad mood my mother opened up my minds to look at things in a different perspective. Fx when I has had a problem she shared her experiences with me and learned me to tackle every situation. Another important person who I likes to admire is my father. A father and a mother is an admirable couple that forms a basis of a children’s life. My parents are like advisers, I can talk to them when I need help. They are motivating me to achieve my goal. I promised myself when I grow older and start a family, i will tell my children’s about my childhood and how I admired my parents. At least my expectation for myself is that I can be a loved parent. I really hope that I will have the same kindness that my parents have. My parents taught me that I can have a good life in 2 ways. The…

    My parents have helped me with almost everything I have completed in life. They’ve always said “I want you to have everything we didn’t”. With that being said it gives me strength to push myself to make them and myself happy. Although both of my parents did graduate high school, neither one went to college, my mom had to work to help out her parents be financially stable because they were illegal. My dad too began to work right out of high school and wanted to join the navy but, due to second and third degree burns he was not capable of joining. I personally am very proud of my parents because neither one of them was wealthy growing up. What they have become today is amazing, and shows that anything is possible. And thanks to them I have two amazing twin sisters Monique and Angelique.…

    The person who I admire is one of the best Croatian and Europian basketball player Dražen Petrović. He was born in Šibenik and he started to play basketball with his brother Aleksandar. I don't know a lot about him but the most important thing I know is that story about his persistence. Once when I was said and disappointed in myself my father told me story about him. Well We all know how the great player Dražen was but however great he was he always after his trainings staid alone in the gym and he was shooting on the basket about two hours. So after he became one of the best European player he went to America to play in NBA. But the problem was that when he came there, there was a many players like him and maybe even better. So in the beginning he was sitting on the bench on the matches while in Europe he was playing for almost the hole match. He became a little desperate but he didn't give up. He again started to be alone in gym after ever training and he was shooting on the basket but now for even four, five hours. He wanted the perfect shot. After hard trainings he again started playing for almost hole game. He won the many titles ACB most 3PT field goals made by an individual and he was one of the best 3PT shooter in the hole NBA. After he died in the car accident the hall world was said about him. The day before he died he played his last game for Croatia. Petrović was inducted into the Basketball Hall of Fame. He is my best basketball player because all his life he played basketball with hurt and he didn't play basketball because money, he played basketball because he liked that sport. This story taught me that if we are good in something we had never give up. We always need to improve our talent and made him better. In this moment maybe there are many people better than us but the most important thing is that after hard working that we are satisfied with ourselves.…
