"Strange how a single conversation can change you. Or maybe it only seems that way in retrospect. A year passes and you know you feel differently, but you're not sure what or why or how, so your mind casts back for something that might give that difference shape: a word, a glance, a touch." This is the most profound quote in Barack Obama's magnificent autobiography, Dreams from my Father. Reading about Barack Obama's life and his transformation from an unmotivated high school student into a graduate of the prestigious Harvard Law School completely unsettled me and helped me reach a harsh truth about myself. I was becoming a person that I despised. I was not putting in my best effort at school, destined for a community college and the life of an average Joe. Dreams from my Father helped me realize that I did not want to grow up and become a nobody. I was living the life of Obama before he became successful: unmotivated, lazy, and carefree. From that point on, I decided that I would put my best foot forward and try my very best. This is reflected in my ACT and SAT II scores. I worked extremely hard to achieve the best scores and am very proud of my effort. Dreams from my Father can benefit all that can understand its subliminal message. It is never too late to chase and fulfill your dreams as Obama did when he reached Harvard Law School after a disorderly childhood.
