Accomplishments from Failures Life is filled with failures and accomplishments; therefore, it is the person’s job to build upon these events. Macbeth was not able to fix his mistakes therefore he dread the rest of his life. I also have had many of my own mistakes; from small things such as, not finishing work, to bigger problems such as a course grade. Although I am still young and have not experienced many true failures, I have come across many problems. The majority of my problems have a connection with school. Specific problems that I have come across are: tenth grade English, slow to finish work and becoming nervous when presenting. In the tenth grade I finished the English cores with a C. the grade slowed me down and made me not want
to try in English. One of the main reasons I was not able to do well is the lack of speed in finishing work, the speed at which it takes me to finish work is tremendously slow. The final problem that I face is becoming nervous when presenting. Becoming nervous lowered my confidence, which is big part in why I felt like not trying in English. From the problems that I faced, I was able to recover and turn them into accomplishments. I am now taking AP courses; I was also able to make time to be on the varsity soccer team. By not letting the English course affect me, I was able to concentrate on courses that I enjoyed more such as: AP chemistry and US history. Being on the Easley varsity soccer team is also a big accomplishment in my high school career. I am able to concentrate on improving my skills as an athlete, but also becoming better at time management. My life so far is filled with many problems and accomplishments, I am able to build upon them and create my own accomplishments. To students having the same problems that I faced I advise them to follow what they enjoy. Other than not giving up, students need to strive to become the best all-around student that they can become.
Duncan's and Macbeth's downfalls in Shakespeare's play Macbeth results from their reluctance to question the motives and actions of others. It was that absolute trust, believing that no one would try to rise up against them, that foreshadows the murders of both characters. Duncan, the first to fall prey to over-confidence, trusted the Thane of Cawdor completely until he discovered that the Thane was a traitor who was betraying him. In Macbeth's case, he believed the prophecies of the three witches without realizing that they have ulterior motives behind their glimpses of the future. Mabeth shows similar weakness when he accepts the vague statements of the apparitions as absolute fact instead of considering and acting rationally upon them.

I have personally achieved a wealth of knowledge and experience just from all of my own little mishaps, and a few major ones.
