I Celebrate Myself

I think that everybody has something to celebrate something in his or her life.  They can celebrate their different achievements, if it would be on a sports field, or in the office.  People can celebrate themselves for how they act in certain situations.  I think it is part of human nature to admire what we have done.  I think that everybody has done this, at least once in his or her lifetime.  However one thing that I celebrate in my life is not about me, but about a saying or characteristic that was brought about from my family.  That characteristic is working hard.  I was brought up to believe that success in life comes from hard work, and the hours of dedication that you put in.  You do not all of a sudden become successful overnight; you have to work until you cannot anymore.  If you want to achieve success, you should only be worried about that one thing.  You have to be focused on it, and be working nonstop.  Hard work is how our world still exists.  Inventions and businesses did not just appear out of nowhere, they were created through hard work.  I can celebrate this characteristic that was brought to me, not by boasting but by continuing to work hard, and strive for success.
