The Key To Success in Life

Paper Summary:

The writer relates how he was diagnosed with a learning disability in high school and only through determination and great efforts could he stay at the pace of his colleagues. The writer tells of his struggle to enter the lacrosse team at university and describes how his determination overcame the difficulties encountered. The writer learns from the saying "Some succeed because they are destined to, most succeed because they are determined to" that he could achieve his goals if he believed in his powers and fought assiduously enough, no matter the obstacles.

From the Paper:

"A long time ago, when I was merely a child, I came across a saying, which had a great impact on my then easily impressionable mind: "Some succeed because they are destined to, most succeed because they are determined to." Later on, I discovered that the saying was actually a quote from the French author, Anatole France. At that point in my life, I had not the necessary experience to realize the very essence of the quote. Nevertheless, it was engraved deep within my mind since that frail age. Little did I know then that this quote was to symbolize the story of my life, marked by bold and severe struggle to achieve my goals and proudly rise above the crowd."
