Success

            Everyone wants to be able to say they are successful and that they have made it in life.  It is something everyone should strive to try and make it too the top. “In order to succeed, your desire for success should be greater than your fear of failure.” – Bill Cosby. I think success is when you finally through all the time and hard work have made it too the top of doing what you love. Everyone looks at success differently some think its about money while some will say its about having a loving family everyone has their own unique version of success. I look at success as all my hard working that will pay off in the future. All the years of truly grinding will finally pay off and I can look back at the tough times and truly say I have made it where I want to be.  I think my success will be transferring to a University for football and getting my degree and finding my dream job. After all the struggle and hard work I want too look back and know all the work was worth it because look where I am today.

            My family is defiantly a positive factor in helping me succeed and get to where I want to be in life. Family should be the number one priority in everyone’s lives. Family will always be there and people you can always be able to count on. They will love you in the good times and bad times in life. “Family is not an important thing. Its everything.”- Michael J. Fox. The reason family will help on anyone’s journey to success because a true family will always be there to support and help. I have personally been blessed with a great family and especially my dad has always been my number one role model and always there guiding me in life. My family will always be my top priority because I know for a fact they will be there when no one else will through the great and ugly times that I will face. That’s why I believe they are such a great help in success. I also truly think another way of success is being able to have my own family. I want to be able to raise my own family and be able to be my kids number one motivator to push them and guide them to be successful.
              The thing about success is once you find yourself on top the hardest thing to do is stay there. Distractions will come up and try too take you off of your path that you have found so much success and triumph on. The thing is you need to have the will power to no fall off from the top, but to push the negative distractions aside to keep you where you know you belong. At the top you have to realize its just you and loved ones, because the rest of the world is jealous and wants your spot. They will do whatever it takes to take your spot. I take that point of view into my football. I worked so hard to make it to the starting spot as a freshman and get my name out their to transfer that I will let no one outwork me or take what I deserve. I just take that attitude that I want it more then anyone and someone out there wants to take that success away from me, so I fight to keep it with me.  Distractions and people will come and go to try and takes what is yours, but it is up to you to fight to keep yourself at the top
