When looking for what you want to do in the future, make sure that you have the passion for it. If you are not always thinking about it, whether you are sleeping or doing daily routines, then you do not have the passion to do it forever. I feel that way about baseball. I just cannot wait until the next season starts. Listening to yourself and finding out what excites you is important. Only you can tell yourself what you actually want to do in life. I at first did not want to continue playing baseball, but after a little push and saying that I can do it I was able to continue and find my passion in it. I hope I am able to do this forever and not have to worry on slowing down.
"The difference between winning and losing is most often not quitting." - Walt Disney. I like this quote because I've played baseball for about 10 years now, and I was thinking about quitting at around the 3 and 5 year mark. I enjoyed playing, but I never practiced and was not really good at the time. My team and I would always lose, and I hated it. I wanted to quit, but I was pushed to keep going and not to give up. I have improved so much since then and actually won my recreation league championship three years ago and I was having a blast. I'm not the best hitter, I mainly just got base hits and a few doubles and a triple in one of our playoff games. But my first at bat at my first game of that season, I actually hit a solo home run while leading off in the 2nd inning. I remember everyone saying how shocked they were and in the back of my head I was thinking I would not be here if I gave up and quit. I still love baseball, and I'm so glad i did not quit and was able to make it to at least one championship game, and win it!
I have been to the Detroit zoo twice before. They were both field trips, one time in elementary one time in middle school. I do not remember much about the trip back in elementary, but I remember seeing the penguins and only the penguins for some reason on the middle school trip. I'm not sure why I forgot so much, maybe a should go back when summer is here. I spent a week in a cottage up north (Charlevoix) back in the 8th grade. I had a blast swimming, hanging out with friends and family, and just enjoying the city in general. On one trip in the city we went to a restaurant we never heard of. I can't remember what the name of the restaurant was, but they had the best fish EVER. I spent time skiing up north for a day. I do not remember much being that i was only 6. I only know of it because my brother told me i fell down and rolled for a while. I wasn't injured thankfully, but i do not think I enjoyed my time there.
Being humble is important if you want your coworkers to like and respect you. Trying to take credit for doing the work by yourself or not admitting to something you did wrong does not make you likable or respectable, it makes you look arrogant and narcissistic. Knowing your team will also benefit you. People like it when they can talk about themselves to you and all you have to do is listen. They'll like you more, and be easier to work with. I also think being yourself is important. I know everyone now a days push everyone to be themselves, but it's important to be yourself or no one will like you for who you really are.
