This is it, the day it all comes to fruition. Saturday night, right around dinner time, my dad and I set out to meet a man to look at what could potentially become my first truck. We had been interested in the truck for quite some time, and today was the day we decided to make an offer. It was quite a lengthy drive in my dad’s old beat up Chevy, but I knew that it would be worth it. Finally, we arrive at our destination, and things couldn’t have worked out any better. For a vast majority of my life, I have worked hard. Rather it being working with my dad at his car lot, mowing the lawn, or just helping out around the house, from the time I could walk, I was working as much as possible. My dad opened up his car lot in 2008, my job at the lot
Four wheeling has been one of my family’s favorite activities for my whole life. Both of my parents even grew up riding. They kept the tradition of riding in our family by giving me my first four wheeler when I was five years old. I would take it on miniature trail rides until it eventually gave out and I had to hop on with my parents. We have continued that tradition by going on many four wheeling trips every summer.
I love riding four wheelers. I also love to adventure so I guess you could say my character trait is being adventurous. I’ve been riding my whole life, you think I’m kidding but my mom even rode four wheelers when she was pregnant with me so yeah. I got my very first four wheeler when I was three and I rode it till I was nine, but then I wanted to ride with the big boys or girls or whatever. When I was ten I got Yamaha blaster two hundred. It was my first manual transmission four wheeler. It was also a fixer upper, so I restored it to original condition and learned valuable knowledge along the way. So now I know a lot about four wheelers. When I got done fixing it it was a lot better than before. So I figured I was ready to learn how ride a
I've been four wheeling since I was about three. Id say its pretty fun when you're not busy crashing. My favorite thing about four wheeling is having the wind blow in my face, it makes me feel free in a way. When i'm with my family four wheeling nothing can stop us so you better watch out. My best experience while riding a four wheeler was when I was about nine my grandpa and my four year old sister were together on one four wheeler and I was on my own we were riding down the road when my grandpa said “ Aryona do you want to go down there?” i was a little scared at first, but he told me it would be okay, so i said “yes.” Once we got down there I was happy I decided to go because It was awesome! One of my favorite things about
not working to pay off my parents’ debts, but I am working to improve myself, and gain experience. Working as a landscaper I have had to wake up early to pick weeds and mow people’s lawns on days t...
Growing up I came from a family of two sisters and a brother. My parents worked hard to be sure that there was always a roof over our head, food on the table, and clothes on our back. My worked for various companies until he was able to obtain his degree as an electrical technician. Today he maintains his own business known as McGhee Electric. My mother also took on various jobs to make ends meet. She began work as a cosmetologist and slowly climbed her way to the top. After rigorous schooling and training, she is now Licensed Practical Nurse.
Truck driving is a difficult job which requires great responsibility of transferring the goods from one place to other far place with proper safety. Genuine CDL training is required by every aspiring truck driver to attain essential skills as a professional driver. These training programs are meant not only help the students learn about the possible ways to handle and manage their trucks in most adverse traffic and weather conditions, but also, this training helps them to learn how to prevent any major loss of the goods during the transference.
Each individual needs to work for various reasons, no matter whether he is the son of the millionaire or of the worker struggling with poverty. “Hard Work is a key to success”, is a well-known proverb. Hard work helps us to develop our potential to the maximum and strive for excellence
I come from a line of hard workers. Everything in my family was earned through hard work and if you knew me personally you would see that the core of our beliefs lie in obtaining a strong education. When I was growing up, my parents had emigrated from Jamaica to America for better opportunities. Both my parents grew up impoverished and did not want their children to live like they had. Coming to America was not the easiest thing for them as they had debts up to their noses. Since my father did not go to college, he could not hold down a steady job and worked meager temp jobs that barely paid the bills. My mother then took it upon herself to go to school in her thirties and worked to support and raise her three children. My mother at thirty six years old graduated with her associates and has been a nurse for almost fifteen years.
We didn't work because they were bad parents and couldn't support us, we worked because my parents thought it was the right way to raise us. Unlike other children my parents didnt want us to ask them for everything and get exactly what we want. My parents have explained to us that in their childhood they were dirt poor and couldnt even afford to eat some
Money has never just been handed to me, which is another thing people assume about me. Why would I have to work for anything if my family already has it? My parents didn’t raise me that way. My family taught me no matter how much I have I must work like I have nothing, because everything can get taken away from me.
Growing up, my parents raised me on values of integrity, charity and ambition. When I was born, my family had lived a one-bedroom apartment with five people. We were never wealthy, but my parents tried their hardest to support me and my siblings and make sure we were raised as respectful, intelligent people who would give back to the world. I was taught to never take the easy way out and encouraged myself to work hard so I could support myself and my family one day. I learned to reflect this in my work, making sure I reach my full potential.
One Monday afternoon is when that all changed. As you already know, it was a Monday when my parents told us to all file in into the car with just ourselves and that’s all that was needed. Not knowing where we were headed to, made the car ride seem so much longer. I can remember the hundreds of ideas running through my head in a loop of possibilities of where we could end up. I could hear every
Nearly 1.3 million people die in road crashes per year globally, that’s on average 3287 people per day. More than half of all road traffic deaths occur among young adults ages 15-44 in the US alone. Nearly 8,000 people are killed in crashes involving drivers ages 16-20. Domestic. These are just a few chilling statistics about the dangers of driving, and honestly I’m just blessed that I wasn’t one of those 8,000
There are countless stories of people who have been poor, but became rich because of hard work. Ralph Lauren, Oprah Winfrey, J.K. Rowling, and Hilary Swank are all examples of what hard work can do to bring you from a state of lack to a state of abundance. However, it 's not just about money. People have pulled themselves out of bad reputations with hard work. People have pulled themselves out of poor health situations with bad work. People have saved relationships and literally turned their whole life around with hard work! You can
I didn’t develop a love of hard work until I was a young mother in the late 70’s and was struggling to maintain my perfectionistic tendencies. I had the unrealistic expectation that I could maintain a tidy household continually and became compulsive about cleaning up after my children. This was not all bad. It gave me a real sense of satisfaction to view my efforts and I felt that my house was “next to Godliness” as it were. However, reality hit and I came to realize that a perfect house did not allow us to have a spiritual home and I changed the method to my madness by adopting a set of more realistic expectations that my young family could live with.
