How basketball taught me hard work and discipline

Self-Presentation

General purpose: how basketball taught me tough work and discipline

Specific function: hard work can assist accomplish anything

Thesis declaration through basketball I found out how to strive and discipline myself to accomplish my goals in life

My enthusiasm for the basketball began when I was in my 2nd year of high

school, basketball not just helped me grow but also taught me a great deal of things that I utilize in my

everyday life.

My enthusiasm for the video game started throughout my in 2015 of middle school, however

in spite of trying for the middle school group I was not chosen to be a part of it.

Although this

was of great disappointment to me, it did not discourage me from my love of the video game. It made me

more driven and determined to strive during the summer season prior to entering high school to

guarantee that I was in a position to try-out for the high school freshman group.

And really more

precisely on hard work, there is a saying that “hard work beats talent, when talent fails to work

hard.” I believe this because to me it means that no matter how good you are if you don’t work

hard, your talent is nothing. If Michael Jordan had not believed in working hard then he would

not have been anywhere near as good as he is today. You do not only need to work hard in sports

in the classroom, and life in general. Working hard in the classroom will give you many

advantages later in life. That way you can get into a good college, and get agood job later in life.

In all this experience, the greatest thing I learn is that hard work pays off,

Although the above experience and accomplishment of being chosen to be a part of a team has

contributed and shaped the person I am today.
