His perseverance taught me that when something gets in your way, giving up is not an option even if you are afraid. I learned that I could conquer my fears, and I should not think that I was incapable of doing something.

My experience as a research intern gave me a
When i was a child i really didn't have the love and support from my family as other people might have gotten which left me to feel alone and giving up on a lot of things. I would play sports and quit because i had no one to come to watch me play then eventually i quit school because i thought no one cared.

He also found what it was like to live without society. He was able to figure out what it was like without the peer pressure of society but rather with you and your mind. He made a remarkable comment saying, “how easily and insensibly we fall into a particular route” (page 385) He was telling about people in society have a strict path that they follow everyday.

Rockefeller yet, Andrew Carnegie only worked with John for a little, business techniques rubbed off on him.”John D. Rockefeller then went off to run his own business Later known as Standard Oil Company of Cleveland”(Ida M. Tarbell).After learning skills from Andrew Carnegie, John D.

But then I realized that it is not an option for me to not finish what I have started, I can get tired, yes, but I can rest. Time lost, is opportunity lost and besides I have a strong support coming from my family and that every great success requires some type of worthy struggles to get there.
