Writing Feedback / No one understands you more than yourself, so do not waste too much time trying to be someone else [2]
Some people think that professional athletes make good role models for young people, while others believe they don't.
Discuss both these points of views and give your own opinion.
There are only a few people who surpass many others to become the leading figure in their particular field. Professional athlete is one kind of such people. Some people think those athletes deserve respect and should become role models for young people, while others, with their own reasons, believe athletes should not. Professional athletes always have to hone their skill to be ready for critical competition, and with their firm will, achieving from such training, they could virtually reach any goal they set, from fitness to getting into college. Nonetheless, not every one who tries will get the result they hope for; and the summit period in the life of an athlete is quite short. Young people should consider carefully before deciding to set professional athlete as their model.
Practice is the most effective method to gain success. A mouse spends almost his entire life to sharpen his teeth, only to prepare for the critical timing. A professional athlete, much the same, spends almost his or her entire young life to sharpen skill for sports competitions. It is practicing which helps an athlete to achieve success in sports and it is an athlete who considers training the most critical part the one who would get fame. When training becomes a natural part of an athlete, he or she would strengthen the will, and be ready to face any obstacles. Young people should, indeed, consider this one trait that they should emulate. Hone their will, and they could break any fences standing between them and their goal.
You tried, and you might fail. You could try again, but youth does not last forever, and the times of trying is definitely limited. If you do not understand yourself, understand your strength, weakness, limitation, you will set an impossible goal that spending your whole life won't give you any promising result. Professional athletes usually have a comprehensive team who takes care of them, from diets, training routines to sleeping habits, and even private life. They understand what their limitations are, and what they should focus on. Young people, with little guide, should not be mesmerised by the aura a successful athlete has, and blindly mimic the way he or she is on. You should have your own plan, do it your way, because athletes' way is their own way of success, a way usually leads to glamorous but short-lived career.
Living is a journey and young people, who have their whole life ahead, are just at the beginning of such journey. Making a professional athlete a model is, in some aspects, well appreciated. Emulating them, should be encouraged, but with your own rationale. No one understands you more than yourself, so do not waste too much time trying to be someone else.
