Marina Diamandis: A Career As A Role Model

Though, many people and circumstances influenced my life, there are three I can easily identify. First, my baseball coach from High School. Early in the season he gave us a piece of paper about fixed and growth mindsets. As I read through it, I found it very interesting. Someone who has a fixed mindset is someone who avoids challenges, easily gives up, and is threatened by the success of other people. A growth mindset is when someone embraces challenges, essential, and uses things as a wake up call to work harder next time. I walked up to Coach Wides after practice and thanked him for handing that paper out because I really was struggling through my senior year of High School. Later in the season after we lost a game, he was talking to us about

Many people have influenced me to be where I am right now, these people include my mother who pushes me to my potential, especially at the times when I need it most. Another great influence I go would be my own athletic trainer Jaime, who has not only taken care if me my four years of high school, but has showed me what it would be like to be her, and what it takes to get to that point. Without Jaime as one of my major influences, I most likely would be undecided and not know what career path I wish to pursue. I have very few friends in which I can consider close, my best friend Deanna is without a doubt one of the top in my life, she has been with me through everything and makes sure to check me when I am slacking. I am very grateful for

Who is a role model in your life? What have they done to impact you? In “One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest” by Ken Kesey, we meet Randle McMurphy, a young man who tests the limits of Nurse Ratched and causes a change to the everyday life of the patients from the mental hospital. Throughout the book, McMurphy was a role model for the other patients. They saw him as a leader and quickly followed in his footsteps.

What's the first person you think of when you hear the word inspiration?Why does that person come to mind?Tyler Oakley comes to my mind.Tyler Oakley is ….He is also known as the “Queen of Youtube.”He was born in Detroit Michigan March 22,1989.Tyler also works with The Trevor Project (The Trevor Project is a nonprofit organization that helps prevent suicide among LGBTQ+ youth )

Growing up I had a role model. He is the most inspirational person I have ever had the chance of meeting. He took care of me when I was sick or when my parents would have to work late into the night, and honestly I am proud to say that this inspirational person is my older brother, Trey Hampton. Not only has my brother been there for me through thick and thin he even managed to introduced me to one of my greatest passions.

My female inspiration that I find so important is Elizabeth Schuyler Hamilton. She is not my only inspiration but she is my favorite woman inspiration. She’s an inspiration to me because she was the wife of Alexander Hamilton, one of our “Founding Fathers”, and went through many hardships before and after the Revolutionary War just to fight in what she believed in. After the death of her husband, she went on not only as a widow but a very generous and selfless woman. She opened the first orphanage in Albany, NY.

What or who is an inspiration? An inspiration is the process of being mentally stimulated to do or feel something, especially to do something creative. People throw around the word inspiration a lot, not knowing what or who a real inspiration is. A person who I think is a really big inspiration to me, and to the world is Michaela DePrince.

An inspiration in my life is April Solomon. She is my small group leader at church, she’s an inspiration to me. She’s kind, she loves to make our group laugh, and to have fun. She also affectively can spread the word of God. I appreciate her ability to be a leader and to love. Her ability to balance work, family, and God never ceases to amaze me. I will always admire her no matter what she does, because everything she does is in good intentions.

Inspiration is found in every niche of life; it’s found in the desire to perform in athletics, music, and in school, while also being found in the moment of fondness with the love of your life. However, in my own life, my inspiration is to surpass the set limits that others impose on me. I thrive on overcoming these limits and excelling at what I set my mind to. This influence on my life is especially prevalent on the baseball field and in academics.

Most people are inspired by celebrities or adult figures in their life but for me, im inspired by someone a few months older than me. Her name is Jaclyn West. I was having a hard time writing this paper because I really just wrestled with the idea of who inspires me. I prayed about who I should write my paper on and then it came to me, Jaclyn. I met Jaclyn in the second grade and she has been a light to me ever since. Our friendship grew as the years went on and I noticed a change in my life, a positive change, a craving to know more and more about Jesus.

I would have to say my role model would be Carrie Underwood. Carrie Underwood cares about the world and the people in it.

Inspiration can be found in anything or anyone. Someone who you look up to that makes you want to follow in their footsteps, is an inspiration. Something that gives you an idea to do something great is an inspiration. Mrs. Patton, my Java teacher, is inspirational to me because she challenges herself, works through problems, and always has a good attitude, as well as a smile on her face, which inspires me to be a computer programmer.

I look up to people who are not afraid to stand up for what they believe and speak their mind no matter what others have to say, People who chase their dreams and don’t let anything or anyone get in there way, and people who don’t give up or change their mind when it gets too hard. I believe if you really set your mind to something you can achieve anything because nothing can

An inspirational person isn’t necessarily someone that just “makes you want to do or create something.” It’s a person that you look up to. We often mimic what our inspiration does. We want to be just like them. You see your inspiration and you think to yourself, “How can I be more like them?”; you are constantly thriving to do things how they do it. This person may often take risks or leaps of faith. You observe them, watch them do whatever it is, and it encourages you to want to do that thing as well. These inspirational people often give you helpful hints in how to go about life by sharing personal experiences, making them very relatable. Often times a mentor can also be an inspiration, but your inspirational person isn’t always a mentor.

Over time, there have been several people who have influenced various aspects of my life, based on their personal characteristics, accomplishments, and values. I have been privileged to have had numerous teachers and professors who I respect for their patience and intelligence. There are artists that have inspired me by their natural talents and original creativity. I value many political leaders, who have inspired me by their contributions to society, and their ability to change our futures. Of all the people I have encountered in my life, the person I admire most is my father.
