Answer 1

Everybody wants to be successful. But only a few people take action immediately when they want to do something.
Whenever I saw my friends swim, I would admire them. How I wished I could swim like them! But I couldn’t seem to learn how. It frightened me just to think of being alone in the water. My father encouraged me to learn from my friends. He said, “ How do you know you can’t if you never give it a try? Nobody is born knowing how to swim.” I realized I needed to do something, and began to practice swimming on weekends. My father taught me, and showed me there was nothing to be afraid of. Two months later, I could swim.
This experience has also taught me that as long as I never give up and keep trying, I can succeed.
