Successful Accomplishments

“Most of the important things in the world have been accomplished by people who have kept on trying when there seemed to be no hope at all.” This quote by Dale Carnegie means you should try even when you don’t believe you can accomplish what you want. A lot of things may seem hopeless, but they can always be accomplished or done it just depends on how much you want it. To be Forlorn is to completely lose cocksure and there’s always some left in you even when you doubt there is you just have to unearth it and once you find it never let it go because it can never be lost forever. People who keep trying and go the extra mile they never thought they could go are the people who are going to make it in the moment of truth; do you want to be that

A time when I accomplished something by continuing to try even when success did not appear imminent was when I thought I was not going to get my varsity letter in Northview Cross country after NLL's even though I did not exactly break 18 minutes and 30 seconds for a 5K. In the NLL race I knew from the start I had to stay relaxed, race people, and not go out to fast so I am not dead after the first mile. So I went out towards to top pack and stayed tough with the other runners as long as I could. When I approached the final 400 meters I did an all out sprint allowing me to pass 3 runners giving me a time of 18 minutes and 35 minutes. I felt proud of this accomplishment and even happier when my coach said "I think you are going to get your

Studying in the U.S. and being a student of Portland State University is my most outstanding accomplishment to date. I always had a dream to study abroad and it became true when I moved to the U.S. three years ago. I enrolled at Portland Community College in Fall term 2013. Although it was difficult to adapt to a different culture and school system, I have been successful in my studies. Out of the seven terms at Portland Community College, I have earned a place on the Presidents' List four times in a row, twice on the Deans' List and once on the Honors' List. I transferred to PSU in Fall 2016 and continue to be a good student. While at PSU, I was accepted to an internship which will start in Spring 2017. The main strengths that help me be successful

Every day is a new day and a new adventure and I want to have as many of them as I can. With my goals set and new determination I will accomplish my goal. I can't wait to see how much weight I will have lost by the end of the year. Whoever is reading this keep working at it. You too can have success just keep pushing forward and don't give

I have accomplished some of my goals in the physical, emotional, intellectual, social civic categories. It has been a challenge to maintain every single goal, but with the time I have been able to reach most of my goals. It was not very easy to do every single one, but I tried my best in every category.

The four accomplishments of the samurai were the four pursuits, and art, in which it was expected to be accomplished by the confucian gentlemen. Games of strategy go to represent the strategic skill and the meritocracy in government value. The universe is getting represented by harmony and the ability of the government to inspire the society. The samurais were a different class and during the 12th century they reduced the emperor for being a mere figurehead. A quarrel was happening between the two samurai houses then developed into a military and political disaster. Many samurais took the opportunity that was provided by the Onin war to help develop the local autonomy that has not been seen in centuries.

Hard work and dedication. These principles have been deeply instilled within me throughout my childhood and teenage years. My parents taught me that nothing in life is given to you; if I wanted something, I would have to work hard and earn it. Whether it has been in the classroom, on the athletic fields and courts, or at work, I have always put forth my full effort into any activity that presented itself. I believe I would be a great recipient of this scholarship due to my very Nellie Fox-like mindset and morals.

My most meaningful accomplishment has been beginning to take care of myself holistically. As someone who is an introvert, I grew up spending a lot of time by myself. I was painfully shy when I was a child and making friends was not easy. As I grew older however, I began to feel the consequences of not having established meaningful relationships with my peers. Junior high was especially difficult because of the very exclusionary social environment. Cliques were all the rage and if you didn’t belong in one, people weren’t very receptive towards you. This affected my self-esteem substantially, and I settled for any friends I could find. As it turns out, these “friends” were not really friends. They were not supportive and liked to drag each other

In regards to my second fitness goal, which was to raise my overall level of strength, I believe that my progress has been going well and that I may be close to achieving my goal very soon. I plan on performing many more exercises to do so, and so far it has been working well since I had noticed that my strength is slowly increasing over time. Perhaps I may need to change a few exercises in my exercise routine so that I can achieve this goal much

The personal accomplishment I am grateful for is finding my own solution to attend and afford college. In order to achieve this, I had to change my Visa status and start a small self-employed business with my parents. After researching a profitable business that would require little start-up money, we settled on a cleaning business. I had to learn how to acquire permits, start a Limited Liability Company, and change our Visa statuses. During the early stages of the business, my parents mostly worked upwards of 12 hours a day, while I raised my then four year-old sister. A few nights a week, I left my sister with my boyfriend, now husband, to go clean buildings. When I wasn’t physically cleaning the accounts, I caught up with the email correspondents

One of my main accomplishments I am most proud of is earning the Outstanding Junior Male Athlete Award in grade 10. This award is presented to one individual per grade, and is earned by showing exceptional leadership, commitment and skill. Being a part of the basketball, volleyball and badminton teams, I worked very hard at maintaining a balance between my school work and my extracurriculars. I was dedicated to whatever I was doing and I was very passionate about sports, which led to my accomplishment. Another one of my accomplishments was getting my first job as a cashier for a fast food restaurant. At that time, I was shy and never liked interacting with others. However, after getting hired, I learned a lot about communication, customer service

There isn’t a day that goes by where you don’t hear me quietly whistling a tune or belting out songs in the shower at home, something I’m sure my parents will miss when I head off to college. From when I was three years old when my parents bought me my first karaoke machine to singing with hundreds of the best musicians in New York, music has become a greatly significant part of my life. I’ve decided to combine the majors of Marketing and Music Arts Management so I can handle the business aspect of the music world. I have strong leadership, organizational skills, and natural musical talent - skills that will greatly benefit my future plans in the business aspect of the music industry. Accomplishments such as being accepted into NYSSMA Conference

My physical goals are to exercise on a regular basis and lose weight to get to an appropriate BMI. I can achieve these goal by spending a minimum of four days a week in the gym and by taking the time to make proper food

Goals are an important aspect to fitness and are fundamentally at the root of any desire for change. Any time it is decided that a change needs to occur there is a desired goal in mind. With this being said, fitness and health are no exception. Before a person digs out their credit card for a gym membership in attempt to better health, they need to decide on specific goals they would like to achieve. Goals can come in wide range of magnitude. As ambitious as a New Year’s resolution to complete the Los Angeles marathon might be, for one new to running, placing a goal of such a great magnitude on one’s self can easily be the first step towards failure. It is much easier to quit when there are miles to go rather than quitting with one step to go. This does not suggest that large goals should be all out avoided. Instead, one should set smaller goals as milestones leading up to an overarching goal. For example, someone may

You need to set goals in your fitness routine because they will motivate your and keep you want to accomplish them. This makes you to move beyond obstacles instead of stressing over them. Setting a goal can help you from quitting since you are not done with it.
