My Uncle, My Inspiration
Khoa T NgoESL 302 – Tonia TrombettaFebruary 25th 2017Second draftMy uncle, my inspiration     In my opinion, a role model is someone whom is your inspiration, the one that you can look up to. He/she will be the one that encourages you to achieve your goal, and helps you find your motivation so that you will never give up on your goal. And my role model is very close to me, taught me a lot about life. My uncle is one of the best uncles in the world. He is the strongest man whom I have ever known. He teaches me a lot about life and how I should deal with my problems. He is a perfect role model of mine because he is confident, hard-working and optimistic. He was born and raised in a poor family in which parent are both teachers. Despite of his poverty, he still managed to learn by himself and became a senior manager of a Japan’s company. First, he always taught me how to face my problem just by being confident. He said “If you don’t believe in yourself, no one will believe in you and that’s how your problem becomes bigger.” He taught me to believe in myself and how to know about my abilities and how to use them in any problems. For example, when I was 15, I had to take the entrance test to get into high school. My goal at that time was get in Tran Phu, which is one of the best schools in my country, and I was so afraid because I was very bad in writing. Then my uncle told me not to worry so much and just focus on my strong point, math, to make up the point I can’t get in writing. And thanks to his advice, I got in that school with even higher grade than the school required. Secondly, he is a hard-working man. Although I consider him as a talented person, but he never stops learning. He often signs up for new courses which will help him improve his knowledge in his major, mechanical engineering, even when he already had over 15 years working experiences. He is also the one who encourages me to study abroad. He said that he regretted not having many chances to study when he was as my age so that he wants me and all my siblings make good use of all our chances. Finally, he is a very optimistic man, which is the point I like most about him. He can see the good side of every problem. He also has a quote that he seen as the best way to enjoy the life: “Life is short, Break the Rules. Forgive quickly, Kiss slowly. Love truly. Laugh uncontrollably. And never regret anything.” It belongs to Mark Twain, a very talented writer. I really like it. And I love that my uncle seems to live exactly as what he wants. He’s really the inspiration of everyone in my family. To sum up, my uncle is really my teacher about life. I am lucky to have an uncle like that and all I really want in my life is to become a man like him, who will always be the inspiration for every one he has met. My uncle; my inspiration.
