Johnathan's Essay |
|
Only one thing can keep you from succeeding: giving up on yourself. As a high school freshman, I wasn't doing very well on the track team. I was thinking of quitting the team. My brothers sat me down and said, "If you give up, you only hurt yourself." I decided to stay on the team. I practiced hard and by the outdoor season I was number one in the state, set the high school record as a freshman and went on to be ranked six in America. Great things lie ahead of you too; don't give up now. |
