There is one word that it's in my mind every day, that word is Success. Success is a word with several meanings; the attainment of wealth, position and honors; the favorable or prosperous termination of attempts or endeavors. Well those are some dictionary definitions about success, but success, for me, is more than a word, it's a goal, an achievement and a dream. I dream with success, I dream about being able to conquer my goals in life and make possible my aspiration of making big things with my life. I attended one day to a motivational talk that had for a title "Be an Entrepreneur". With little knowledge about this specific theme I decided to attend to this conference. I remember the Speaker saying a quote that got in my mind and in my heart, "Dream Big and Leave the Beach". This meant: visualize your goal and work hard to make it real. He made all of the audience a question "who has a dream?" Many of us raised up our hands. Then he said "I'm glad for you, but what are you doing now to achieve your dream". That question kept on my mind since then. Therefore I saw in retrospective and asked myself; what I'm doing to achieve my goal?
I decided to study computer engineering because: My goals are to have my technology company, developing new technologies and creating the best quality products for having 2 results; clients being satisfied with high quality products and; being comfortable knowing I'm making high standard products, that make a considerable progress to society. My company would focus on computer components such as motherboards, processors, power supplies and Cases. Being that my primary objective, I would like to mount my company in my country, Honduras. I see the unemployment problems in my country. I would like to provide a decent job for many qualified and capable human beings that are in my country. I obtained that experience in Super Mercado La Antorcha. Being that my case, I have worked before, but I didn't like the treatment and the salary was too low. I'm decided to change that. I love Honduras, but its monumental beauty is overshadowed by corruption and insecurity issues. More jobs would help to improve my country's economy.
Some of my extracurricular activities included a German Course that I took on October 2009. I also like music and played in a Couple of bands on Freedom High school. In my Church, I'm a member of a community service group named "The Good Samaritan" in which we help people with low resources, providing them of food and medicines to supply their needs. On Liceo Militar Del Norte, I volunteered to give food, clothing and medicines on community centers and asylums. I was also member of the Chess Club at Liceo Militar Del Norte; attending to classes at Universidad Tecnologica Honduras (UTH).On my military courses I acquired leadership skills, from leading a squad, to prepare a platoon for an ambush and a platoon attack. Leadership has developed on me, thanks of my military instructors.
Why I'm a student that deserves to have this scholarship? I'm perseverant. I don't accept a "no" for an answer. When people say I can't do something, then it's when I try the most and work harder not only to demonstrate them I'm capable of doing my task, but to effort myself to be better. I'm also a self-taught person. Not having a solution to a problem, is just a chance to gain knowledge. I don't see the problems as an obstacle, but I see them just like an opportunity. My leadership skills were taught on my High school "Liceo Militar Del Norte" a military school in my Country. There I learned how to team work and learned about leadership. Gaining 3 diplomas on courses, I learned leadership skills that made me not just a good leader, but made my platoon the best. I learned that a good leader make a good team. Like Michael Dell, owner of Dell computers; I would like to build my enterprise at a young age. Learning new cognizance is important for me. A famous phrase from an unknown author says "The moment we stop learning, is the moment we die". I am interested about learning languages, so I decided to enter a 6 month German course.
I want this scholarship because my short-term goal. As an entrepreneur I have many goals, ready to be achieved. I am committed to "Leave the Beach" by starting my company. All the knowledge gained would be the engine for my dream to be accomplished. A scholarship would be well used. In my hands, a entrepreneur's hands, would be the best choice you can make. Your investment would be shown on my results.
I want this scholarship because it would be the opportunity that God will give me to make a difference in my country. Hard work, study and effort would be my tools to build up a dream called "success". Giving me a chance for study abroad would be the opportunity to create my company that would be not only one, but first of my companies, focused on technology that would succeed on quality products which would be used all over the world. I will use the funds wisely to support my education consequently giving all my enthusiasm and exertion to obtain the highest grades possible.
My contribution to the Walton International Scholarship Program is that more young, innovative and entrepreneur minds get to know this scholarship program and have a chance ,like me, to make their dreams come true and no doubt about their goals and careers. I don't want that anybody with the passion and dedication couldn't achieve their goals only for not having the resources to continue their education. In the future I see myself as a motivational speaker, focused on schools and provide all the new generation the hankering of working hard and never give up their dreams.
