Describe the world you come from - for example, your family, community or school - and tell us how your world has shaped your dreams and aspirations.
Despite the traumatizing environment I grew up in, I turned out to be ok. My world, which consists of my parents and two brothers, has motivated me to become the most of who I am. Unfortunately, my most vivid memories as a child do not include playing dolls or running around in the park. Instead, they include watching my brother threatening to kill my mom. I grew up watching them battle and bicker at each other like children and uncivilized humans. At such a young age I already felt so insignificant and useless for not being able to stop the fights and I felt like it was my responsibility to fix everything. I hated watching conversations turn into fights. But most of all, I hated not being able to do anything about my situation and so I promised myself that I would eventually get out of this environment and become successful so I can return to help my family. This goal has developed into a burning passion that I must accomplish.
As I got older, I learned to value this atypical childhood experience because I realized it made me distinct. And without this type of world, I would never have developed the motivation and ambitions to do what I want most in life: to help my family. Although that dream is very broad, it is something that I am determined to do so. After watching my family suffer for years, there is nothing more I want to do than to bring happiness into their lives. My father has been suffering from spinal stenosis for 16 years now. And my single hard working mother survived breast cancer but still continues to stress herself trying to raise her three kids. I have learned that nothing in life comes easy and one must always work extremely hard to achieve it. I have taken the responsibility into my own hands to better the health of my father, to relieve the stress of my mother, and to support my brothers. These goals of mine are not easy tasks and I know in order for me to achieve them I must work harder than everyone else. But just watching my family suffer is strong enough to inspire me to really be the change to their worlds. My family is the foundation to my biggest dreams in life and it has truly pushed me to challenge myself in every way and rise to never give up. I have no doubt in my mind that one day all my hard work will finally pay off and I will be able to support my family.
I had a hard time coming up with an introduction. All feedback is greatly appreciated!

.... this gives an impression that they positively contributed towards motivating you. But as you proceed it's kind of different approach. I wish you give some clue here itself.
My world revolved around the four characters that were my mom, dad and two brothers. Unfortunately My memories of childhood do not include playing with dolls or running around in parks. Instead, they include watching my brother threatening to kill my mom.At a later stage you can tell that these experiences shaped your currently personality.
