     The tone of my life is confidence. To me, confidence is a source of satisfaction. I believe that the more confident you are in yourself, the better off you are. I maintain my confidence while remaining humble about it. In a manner, I combined the humble and confident sides of my personality. Even if I am confident, I must have a humble attitude so that I never get ahead of myself. Being humble and confident also brings out the side of myself that is misunderstood. My friends and family wonder why I like to spend a lot of time alone and do activities on my own. Although I consider this to be a good quality, most others do not.  I believe that being self-reliant is a positive attribute to possess. Confidence helps me to accomplish anything I set my mind to, making me extremely high minded and confident in all I do. Confidence enables me to maintain a high level of self-esteem and hold my head high even when confronted with negative people. I utilize confidence in my daily life, especially now as the world around us is becoming increasingly negative. My self-assurance is growing stronger as I prepare for whatever the world has in store for me.

    This is great! Yeah, I could see the counter-view of people thinking doing a lot of activities by yourself as a bad thing- but everything is good in moderation! Great post, I think it is great you are confident.

    Having confidence as a tone is always a plus. If a person is not confident about themself, it can be hard for them to succeed at anything. Sometimes being misunderstood is a good thing because it will also help to build your confidence level up even higher. It is good that your self-assurance is growing stronger. The world has the best in store for you. Also, staying humble helps balance out the confidence level from being too extreme.

    Confidence is a tricky thing for me. In public sometimes I lack it, sometimes I pretend I have it. But the real thing that people need to have confidence in is not in public, but in private: confidence in themselves. Anyone can stand up and fake something to others, but you can’t live without being confident with who YOU really are inside.

  "What will your verse be"? A simple verse within a lifetime of things I hope to accomplish.  My verse will be filled with all of my loved ones by my side, and the accomplishments we've achieved as a group will be measured by how much we've assisted one another. Whether these loved ones are my immediate family or friends, I want them to look at me and honestly believe I had a positive influence in their lives. Whether it's helping my sister with her basketball practice or helping her major lifetime decisions.  I'm always willing to provide a helping hand. My parents taught me how to be selfless, to think of others and always help out someone in need. I care deeply about my family and friends' happiness and success, and I will do everything I can to help them achieve their goals. Because I know God has a plan for everyone, my verse may not be what I anticipate it to be, but I will make the decision not to be alone. I will make people happy and have a signi

       "The Untraveled Path" George Harrison's song and Robert Frost's "Any Road" Both the poem and the song, as their titles imply, are about the road, which is a metaphor for our life's journey. "Two paths diverged in a wood, and I— I chose the less traveled by, and that has made all the difference," writes Robert Frost, whereas George Harrison asserts, "If you don't know where you're going, any road will lead you there."  The symbol of a road has typically been used to represent life's journey. It does, however, represent both the route and the goal. The poem's prevalent interpretation is that Robert Frost pursues one of the two paths he portrays. The title, on the other hand, emphasizes that Frost did not travel along any of the routes listed. Instead, he takes the middle road.  "And sorry I couldn't travel both/ And be one traveler," he says at the opening. His initial judgment is that it isn't p

       When I was six years old, I played on my first baseball team. That’s when I fell in love with the sport. Until I was eighteen my life revolved around sports. While in Middle school I started playing football and basketball. From the time I was ten I played sports year-round. When one sport season ended another started for me.  I played not only for the love of the games but for the competitiveness and the happiness that winning brought me. Most athletes probably will not admit that, but I will, winning was and is important. Loosing wasn’t an option for me and because of that I never walked off a field or court without knowing I gave everything I had and did my absolute best.  That was very important to me. Playing sports, I made great, life-long friends. Being part of team taught me how to work with a group of people, being part of an organization and how to fight through adversity.  High school sports put a lot of pressure on athletes to do well, especially male athletes.   Fri
