Title Mahatma Gandhi once said, “ Satisfaction lies in the effort, not in the attainment, full effort is full victory”. This is a quote that anyone can apply to everyday things such as school or a job.

The President of the United States is one of the most scrutinized people on the planet and this is because people expect results from voting for this person. Presidents are commonly judged by the first one hundred days of their presidency. In my case, I am not the President of the United States, but I am a result-oriented person. For example, I sometimes work with my tennis coach, at my tennis club, in one of the youth programs at the club. My goal when working with younger players is to make sure they have fun while learning and progressing at the game of tennis. If this goal is achieved, that makes me feel like I have done a full days work. My love of tennis and practicing the game is one of the things that makes me so result-oriented and …show more content…

For example, I volunteer at House of Bread in downtown Dayton and it is not the most lavish volunteering position, but it is rewarding to see how that I am a part of something that gives, those less fortunate than myself, a warm meal and that I can affect the life of someone that I have never met before. It is a great feeling when I can stand back and see that I have helped feed anywhere from fifty to a hundred people in one day. I always take pride in completing a task the right way and not taking

A volunteer experience of mine that comes to mind is one that is probably my most favorite volunteer experience yet. It is one that I get to do at my very own school called DUCK Week (Doing Unselfish Charities for Kids), which is a week long event that I have been a part of since I joined Piedmont Schools as a second grader. What makes this charity unique is that it focuses only on a member or a few members in our very own community, which is why we are able to be so successful with it. It is easier for someone to understand the need to help when it is someone that they may know. This small town in Oklahoma rallies around community members and together we raise funds to help those in need.

We organized a traditional bake sale, as well as an online bake sale, to raise money for the family.
