Pride sample

Work hard play Hard

I do not have a simple one thing i feel accomplishes about or have pride in. What

i have pride in and have accomplished is in myself. At 17 i work two jobs and support

myself fully. What i take pride in is all my hard work and being able to make my wants in

to reality asn what to know what i own. I have pride in to being accountable for

becoming who i am today.

I am extremely proud in getting my very own car at 17 years old. Not a lot of

people can say that they are the reason they have their own car. Every single check i

received from my first job which i am also very proud of, i have saves 90% of it. I would

work closing shift and open the very next day when i was extremely tired. I understood

my goal to get my own car and worked really hard for it. I took almost a year of saving

my checks to be able to buy my own car. A car that i wanted and even pushed myself to

learn how to drive because of how much i wanted it. This really surprised myself on how

determined i can becomes. I now even pay my own car payments, insurance, and gas

every single month.

My car is a sign of hard work and determination that i admire myself for. This a

sign of how hard i can work for something that i really want. A reminder that i can do

anything that i set my mind to.
