I want to live life like I am dying. I think it is better to take risks and perhaps make some mistakes rather than to remain cautious and risk nothing. First, life would never be boring if I was always taking fun risks. An example of a fun risk I would take would be jumping off a cliff into the lake because I would not know how deep the water is. Second, any stupid risks I take that I think may have been a mistake in the first place would actually benefit me in the long run because I would learn from my mistakes. For instance, one time I drove the golf cart to fast and almost flipped it, so now I drive the golf cart extremely slow. Last, I want to live life to its fullest and if I do not take risks everyday than I do not think I am living life to its fullest journey. As can be seen, I do not want to live a life with no risks because that would mean I would not actually be living life like we are supposed to. First of all, life would be really boring if I never took risks. For instance, if the people on Earth had not taken half the risks they have already we would never know what to do with our lives. If I had not taken the risks to learn how to swim I would not have known how much fun swimming brings into my life. If I did not learn how to swim I would not get …show more content…
If we never took the risks to use the same needle on a different human we would never had known that that can injure the other person. If we never took the flu shot billions of people would die each year. If we take risks like this all the time we are learning new things that will help out the future generations. If we take the risk before someone else we could give the next person who is going to take that risk advice. If we never take risks we would never look at things differently in life. All in all, we take risks and we learn from our mistakes, and that is one of the greatest things that we will ever

He was intelligent, idealistic and a truth-seeker. One of the epigraphs, Krakauer used to start a chapter, is about Everett Ruess.

Claudia Kalb’s article “ Do No Harm,” published in the October 4, 2010, issue of Society, discuses the healthcare professionals’ defensive behavior that causes the malpractices among patients. Kalb reports that since the Health system’s applied the lawyer Boothman’s program of “ disclosure and compensation,” then the number of lawsuits reduced as well as the legal- defense costs have dropped around 61 percent. In 1999, there were around 100,000 Americans people are killed from the preventable medical errors, noted Kalb.

As everyone know, chance is the absence of any cause of events that can be predicted, understood,or controlled. They are given to every lifes, but not everyone can take the chances on time. Sometimes if we missed one chance, we might get another one. But sometimes, we might never get it again. Chances don’t come very often so I think that taking every chances that come to our life may be one of the solutions.
Since the dawn of humanity, people have acted with various intentions and various degrees of judgement. For centuries, people have considered the necessity of considering the outcomes before action. In “The Rime of the Ancient Mariner”, Samuel Taylor Coleridge argues that one should avoid impulsive action. Similarly, Frankenstein by Mary Shelley concerns the importance of contemplating the outcomes before action. One should never act without consideration, instead avoiding impulsive behavior.
Sometimes it 's the smallest decisions that can change your life forever. In "The Scarlet Ibis" James Hurst expresses the theme of death in his short. When he wrote "summer was dead and Autumn has not been born" it shows that there is a deep meaning to the story. Another example of death in his story is when Aunt Nicey said "red dead birds are bad luck" when the family sees the Scarlet Ibis fall out of a tree and die. It foreshadows the events that will happen in the storm because of brother leaving him behind.
In conclusion, everything is uncertain. The most important thing is the fact that you lived every day to the absolute fullest. You can never truly know what will happen next. I believe you should live every day to the fullest because you never know when your last one
Someone once said, “ Life is all about making choices. Always do your best to make the right ones and always do your best to learn from the wrong ones”- Anonymous. Choices can always look instructive whether they are great or bad. Often, a string of good choices makes it easier to continue down the path, good consequences paving the way to more good choices. However, poor choices often have unlimited consequences.
Steve Jobs’ assertion, “ Remembering that you are going to die is the best way I know to avoid the trap of thinking you have something to lose. You are already naked. There is no reason not to follow your heart,” is valid because by remembering that in the end, we will all die. We should not contain our way of thinking and how we want to live life. By remembering that life is short, our minds will begin to think differently and perceive life differently.
Eliezer Wiesel and Jeanne Wakatsuki have very many things in common through rough experiences in the camps they were in. Eliezer and Jeanne have a lot in common like how they both changed personality’s throughout the story, how they showed fear in many situations, and lastly they both learned from these hard experiences. Even though Eliezer and Jeanne can relate in many ways they are actually quite different and experienced different things. For instance, Eliezer was not obstinate like Jeanne. Also, there was a point in the novel where he was completely alone while Jeanne had her family with her throughout the whole time in the camp.
The Differences The novel The Natural by Bernard Malamud displays a tragic story about a man with many flaws show extraordinary skills in baseball, with a depressing ending of disgrace. The movie, however, displays the story of a respectable guy dealing with a few unlucky happenings while also showing his natural talent in the sport of baseball. The movie and the book have some big differences include Iris, who she is and her relation with Roy, Roy’s aspects, and the ending. The two works have clear differences that arguably change the story totally.
I agree with the point he made in his essay and feel that life is too short to be scared to be happy and accomplish your goals. I was already a firm believer in life is to short to settle for less, however, after Reading and watching Steve Jobs 2005 commencement it made me really realize even more that in life you can not be afraid to take risk in life. In the beginning of the commencement Steve says “Remembering that i’ll be dead soon is the most important tool i’ve ever encountered to help me make the big choices in life” Jobs,
but I 've also made some really good ones Mistakes are a major fear for us humans but if we didn 't make mistakes we wouldn 't ever learn. There are gonna be times when we 're scared but there 's nothing bigger than fear than fear its self. Imagine when I was a child I wanted to ride a bike,but I was afraid of falling so my parents added training wheels then when I was older they took them off I got on it without the trading wheels and I fell I hurt myself pretty bad
Overcoming my Obstacles Obstacle--a word that most people in the world do not want to mention, but all of us have to face them every day in our lives. Some people have to face physical hardships, but others have to face spiritual difficulties. Overcoming these obstacles is very important for people to have a good life. Everyone has a personal way to overcome their obstructions, and each way has a particular lesson to teach us. I also have had to face many difficulties in my life, and my three big obstacles have been homesickness, car sickness, and studying English.
Most people in the world are different in many ways. In fact, some people say no human being on earth has the same fingerprints. On a similar topic, my parents are different in many ways also. Although my mother and father are different in the ways they act, live life, and discipline children, I love them both. First off, my mother and father differ in the ways they act.
