Undergraduate / Father's Influence, he is by my side - Most Influential Person In Your Life [6]
Father's Influence
Throughout our life we come across a person who changes the viewpoint of our life so we shall benefit from it. For me, both my parents have had a continuous impact on my life, but my father has had the most extensive one. Even though he is a workaholic, he has always had time to come to parent meetings, my sports matches and many other activities that other parents shrug off.
Even though I despised being put into the sports I had been in as a child, I am happy that my dad had forced me into being an active member of them. Even though I was not always the best player, my dad made me feel as if I was by the small but important things he did. Many times would lose, but in return instead of being put down he would cheer me up by either buying me something I wanted or taking me somewhere where we could enjoy ourselves. Even though he always knew that my team would rarely win, he always kept registering me in hopes of getting better. In this manner he instilled in me the determination to keep trying and never give up.
My father has also been an important source of information and inspiration for me. Many times we have had late nights because he would be explaining a math problem to me or we would be working on a science project. He has always put me ahead of himself and provided me with the things I need to excel. In other ways he also acts as a motivator for me since he has come so far in his as well. Studying in India, he overcame many challenges to become a recognized engineer where he is now. For that I am grateful because he has insinuated the same qualities he has in me so that I can succeed.
Everything my dad has done for me has made me who I am today. Most things in life I have learned from him and hopefully I can apply those in life to what I aspire to become. He has always impressed me with his patience, dedication and other qualities that I believe have been ingrained within me. Even if next year I will be miles away from my home, I will always have my dad next to my side.
