Who Is The Best Option?

Have you ever given up on something, like homework and then failed that class, In Fever 1793, Laurie Halse Anderson uses never giving up by Mattie and Mother to show us that giving up gets us nowhere. In the book fever when the fever outbreaks everyone thought this was the illness to wipe out mankind. After a wile Mattie and grandfather were kicked out of the coffee shop so Mattie would not catch the fever. And in the end they survived (except grandfather). Never giving up means you can do great things.

truth. “Sometimes in life, giving up isn’t the answer because hard work will one day pay off”.

Don’t give up on what you want, because if you do you will not get it. You might get mad at yourself for not getting it, so quit being lazy and go do

Often times I would rebel as a little kid, much like Jaja is starting to in Purple Hibiscus. I would often say, “no” or ask, “why” when my parents told me to do something. And I hated when my parents would tell me, “because I said so” this would absolutely drive me up the wall. I couldn’t understand why they would say this and would often question them to no end, or just annoy them by repeatedly asking, “why.” Now years later I understand that they were just protecting me, and trying to keep me safe the best they could.

To begin with, we can all relate to when we thought that our parents were being unfair at times – like those moments when they wouldn’t let us out of the house for some unknown reason. Then we would

We have all failed several times, and sometimes we have given up. One of the most famous chocolate makers in history failed many times, but he never gave up on his dream.

There is not many times where I give up on myself, but there was one time and it messed up my high school GPA. It was my sophomore year in biology class, where I finally gave up on myself. I absolutely hated biology, and I did not understand it at all. It was such a hard class for me I thought I was going to fail it as soon as I started the class. I would study all the time for the tests and still do horrible on the tests. I would do decent on the stuff we did in class, but that is because it was usually with a partner and they would do everything. It was about half way through the quarter and we just got a test back and like usual it was a D. At that moment, I gave up on myself and decided to do something different. I had a D in the class

Everyone remembers fighting with their parents at some point in their life, whether as a young child who wants a toy or as a teenager who isn’t allowed to go out. It’s normal to want to challenge authority when growing up, because it helps young people to make their own decisions and become individuals. Teenagers rely on few close friends and the last people expected to be confidants are their parents.

Doesn’t giving up mean a person can’t fail? I believe that if someone gives up they can’t succeed. If they hadn’t given up, think about all the accomplishments they could have earned

To first answer this question, we must know what weakness of the will is. According to the famous philosopher Donald Davidson, weakness of the will occurs when a person acts counter to his or her own best judgment. This is also called incontinence. Many philosophers argue whether or not an incontinent action can even occur. It seems hard to believe that a person could believe one action to be the best option yet commit another action. If we believe an action to be best then why would we choose another action? Is it weakness of the will or is it something else? Do we really believe that the action was best or did some part of us really believe that it wasn’t? Say someone wanted to go for a run to get in shape. They believe that running is the best thing for them, yet they stay home and eat cake. Is it weakness of the will or not? It is tough to say and even harder to even harder to prove. The philosopher Donald Davidson sets out to prove incontinence true and prove Aristotle, Plato, Paul, and Socrates wrong.

At some point in the various journeys we embark on in our lives, we get to a part where we feel like giving up. Sometimes we give up before we even start and other times we give up just before we are about to make that huge break-through that we have been putting so much effort in to achieve.

Slowly, he brought himself to his feet and looked up at the mountain he once climbed. He saw the rocks he stepped and slipped on and the rocks he avoided. Knowing his failures and past successes, he returned to climb on the mountain with much more ease than before. Giving up takes away all your future chances. Opportunities to succeed are lost. No matter what struggles there are in reaching your goals, overcoming them is the only way to reach them. Goals are only achieved if you strive for them and never give

This advice means to me that giving up isn’t an option, I have to keep pushing through. There is a light at the end of the tunnel, no matter how far it may seem. Situations are temporary, sometimes you even have the power to change them. But, don’t ever let someone take control of your life. Find the strength within you and no one can stop you.

My parents were at the door greeting people as they walked in. My dad looked like he’d eaten a bag of lemons while my mom seemed to have genuinely missed me. I glanced at Rhonda 's parents and they seemed to notice the sour face too. Instead of acting like they didn’t see, they kicked the bull.

Over the years of my life, I have come up with many different philosophies from famous quotes, observation, and even learn or heard from people. I mix and match many of them together to suit what I believe is the best choice. Now the follow philosophies I have are only a portion of what I have because it could be either I forgot, change, or still work in progress. Since I have a good handful of different philosophies, I’ll try to give each one a fair overview of what and why.
