Essay 1: The Person Who Influence
Me the Most Essay
If you've attended Great
Neck South High School, you've probably heard of
Dr. Philip Mogul from a student or a faculty member at one
point or another. Or perhaps you may have
simply heard Dr. Mogul from down the hall,
arguing about the role of Judaism in American eating habits or some
other arcane topic. For a physics teacher,
Dr. Mogul has a lot to say about
practically everything. Because of him, l have gained greater
knowledge and
self-confidence. When questioned about which quality I value most in
Dr. Mogul, l can honestly say that it is
his individualism.
If you want instant gratification, go suck on a lollipop, said Dr.
Mogul while lecturing on velocities and
acceleration. Although instant
gratification has very little to do with the instantaneous speed,
this quote is an example of his
individualism in today's instant gratification
based society. Any physics teacher who is willing to devote
class time to teach his students how to
perform an emergency tracheotomy (it involves a
Bic pen) and spend time discussing the foundations of
religion deserves respect, for knowledge
such as that will probably be more practical in the
course of life than knowledge of the uranium disintegration
series. While other teachers concentrate
on finishing the curriculum, Dr. Mogul's
emphasis is on learning. Instead of learning just physics, l learned
a lot more values, ethics and emergency
first aid. Dr. Mogul is also one of the
few teachers I know who has tried to know his students extremely
well as individuals. He understands the
value of every single person, even if the
person doesn't understand momentum. To encourage students to become
more independent, Dr. Mogul uses a grading
system that many other teachers look down
upon because of its emphasis on effort and not just scores. However,
he ignores them because he knows that what he does is right.
While some may look at him with pitying
eyes because of what they perceive as insanity, l
look at him with respect for his willingness to challenge
conventional wisdom. While some may see
him as a stubborn nonconformist, l see him as a
man who refuses to give up; a man who would rather be
humiliated in failure, than give up for
fear of failure. While I don't agree with
everything he says, l do agree with his philosophy. In an age where
conformity is encouraged, Dr. Mogul stands out as a beacon of
individualism.
Although we never did get up to solid state electronics, l certainly
learned a lot about life. As a result of knowing Dr. Mogul, l
feel that I have grown less reliant on
what others think and more reliant on my
intuition. l now take more calculated risks, often with positive
results. One such risk is the Westinghouse
science project that I am currently
working on with Dr. Mogul in search of a way to mathematically
determine densities of certain
compounds. But more importantly, l now stand up for
myself and what I believe in. l am an important individual,
just like everyone else is. l can thank
Dr. Philip Mogul for that.
Essay 2: My Brother Influenced
Me the Most
Every family has people
who influence the lives of other members of the family. Often
the father’s or mother’s influence is the most important.
However, in my family my brother has influenced me the
most because I enjoy his company, I respect him, and I can rely
on him for good advice.
Most people would enjoy knowing my brother. He has all of those
qualities of a true friend. By a good friend I mean one that is
understanding, but not too sympathetic. My brother will take up for
me, but is not afraid to tell me when I am in the wrong, and he can
both give and take kidding. Also, my brother is a good person to
know because he enjoys having fun. For example, he is ready to go
skiing, swimming, fishing, or hunting at a moment’s notice. He
always has tickets for the ball games and concerts, and when I
double date with him, he keeps everybody laughing at the things he
says.
He always seems to know the right things
to do and the right places to go. but in addition to being a good
friend and lots of fun, my brother is an enjoyable and influential
person to me because he participates in so many campus activities.
For instance, he is the vice-president of Rotaract, a member of the
college chorus, and an officer in Phi Kappa Phi, a college honor
society. If a person is the friend of someone as involved in as many
campus activities as my brother participates in, then he is bound to
meet interesting people on campus. Although people would enjoy and
benefit from knowing my brother, they would also understand why I
respect him so much.
By my respect for Jack I mean that I have a high esteem for his
sense of values. He is a person who is true to his principles, and I
have great confidence in his integrity. For example, my brother had
the opportunity to attend college on an athletic scholarship but
could not study what he wanted at the school that offered him the
scholarship. This was a hard decision for him .However, he passed up
the “free ride” and refused the scholarship. He had to work his way
through school .If many people had the same opportunity, most of
them would take the easy way out. I hope that I can remain as true
to my values as my brother has. “Know thyself” is the ancient Greek
motto, and I respect my brother because he lives by it;
consequently, I can always rely on his judgment.
I know that I can always rely on Jack for sound advice.
For instance, when I
when I was getting a lot of pressure from friends, I had a problem
that I did not want to talk to my parents or teachers about. I went
to my brother because I knew that he was reliable and would listen
to my side of the story first, without making an instant
condemnation. In a similar situation with one of my friends his
counselor at school “passed the buck” to his parents, and his
parents over-reacted to the problem without understanding it. My
brother was nothing like these people. For example, he listened to
my problem, asked me questions, and helped me to see the way to a
solution. I feel that I can always count on my brother’s advice.
Although I love and respect all of my family, I am especially close
to my brother. He is enjoyable company and has earned my respect. I
know I can always rely on my brother.
Essay 3: My Father Influenced
Me the Most
Usually a good
influence produces good results; likewise, a bad influence
creates a bad seed. When a young man picks up smoking due to his
fathers habit of burning two packs a day this is negative
influence. Patients portrayed could be a positive influence.
The man who influenced me the most was my dad. His
habits and personality, in most cases, would shape a poor
influence. His bad influence only brought good in my
life.
I had a great life and my father wasn’t a horrible
father figure. He taught me how to hunt, fish, and play ball. My dad
believed in working hard. Sometimes he would let me stay up late to
watch TV with him even though Mom never agreed. My mom was saved
after they got married so I was lucky to grow up with Godly
principals. Having an unsaved father brought some principals
conflicting God. Growing up my mom would stress to me how important
it was not to do things of the world while my dad encouraged the
opposite. He encouraged things he thought would make me a man, but
he didn’t know the manliest act a man could do is surrendering his
life to the Lord.
Dad lacks submission. My dad is the kind of guy who always is
right (by his opinion of coarse) and never backs down. I don’t think
he has ever lost a fight. According to the Bible we must submit to
each other; this seems hard at times. Although he is devoted, my
father will not submit even to people in his family. He doesn’t show
much respect for people, let alone yield to someone.
My dad did succumb to some bad habits though. Foul language, tobacco
use, anger, unforgiveness, paranoia, manipulation, are some of the
contrite issues my dad dealt with. A few of these actions rubbed off
on me, but through time and the hand of God I was released from that
junk.
The biggest influence in my life was my dad. His
actions and influence seemed bad, but I turned them into good
influences. I didn’t like how my father lived in a path of
destruction. Striving to do things different than Dad was how I
turned his bad influence into good. I try to submit to
others. I respect people. Most of all I have devoted myself to
serving my Lord, Jesus Christ!
Essay 4: The 4 People Who
Influence Me Most
1.
My Aunt
The person who has influenced me the most is my aunt,
Teresa. My aunt has taught me things that I will never forget. I
have learned from her to always treat people with respect and also
myself. She has always taught me how to take care of my personal
hygiene. My aunt wears her perfume really well. She always smells
nice wherever she goes. She has taught me to wear my perfume just
like her and how to keep the smell on my body. I have learned to do
everything she does. She can also dress really well, and she has
taught me to do the same thing she does. I can talk to my aunt about
anything. If it’s personal, I can trust her not to tell anyone. In
conclusion, my aunt has influenced me in a lot of ways; she
has taught me things I will never forget.
2. My Grandfather
The person who influenced me the most was my grandfather,
Poppa. By being around my grandfather Poppa, I learned lots of
things. Poppa has taught me how to be a man by taking care of the
family. He helps people and he’s a hard worker. He always told me
that a man should never be broke. There was a time I didn’t know how
to do yard work but one morning long ago we went outside, and he
taught me how to cut grass, paint, and all types of other outside
work. In conclusion, my grandfather, Poppa, has taught me things
that no one else has.
3. My Former Teacher
A person who had a strong positive influence on my life
is my former teacher and friend, Ms. Treva Larson. Ms. Larson taught
me what I believe to be the three things needed to have a successful
career. She first taught me to be assertive, to stand up for myself
and my beliefs. Also, Ms. Larson taught me to extend my intellectual
arm in every direction, to add variety to my personality. She always
told me no one can know everything, but everyone can learn
something. The final and most important lesson I learned was to
never make small dreams because if think small, everything in my
reality will always be small. Concluding my thoughts, I believe I
would be a totally different person if I had never been placed under
the LARSON INFLUENCE.
Essay 5: My Grandmother
The older person that
has been a great influence on my life is my
grandmother. One reason she has influenced me is because she is able
to manage hardships. She lived in Africa all her life where
it was dusty and she had asthma. She didn’t take any medication or
anything like that. She influenced me because she didn’t give up on
living where it was dusty. She loved where she lived and didn’t let
her asthma keep her from going outside. I learned to keep going when
times are hard from her.
Another way she influenced me is that around where she lived,
everyone loved her and knew her. When I was little, my mom always
took my sisters and me to visit her, but sometimes she and my
grandfather would come down to visit. Whenever we saw her, she would
carry Belinda, my twin, and me on her lap and tell us stories about
when we were born. Sometimes she told us about my dad because
Belinda and I hardly knew him at all. Her extreme love for us and
her willingness to share this love through memories conveyed have
persuaded me to be a loving, sharing person.
My grandmother also influenced me because she hardly ever got angry.
She wasn’t a mean lady at all. She didn’t need a temper or fit to
persuade others to respect her—she used knowledge and compassion to
get respect. I’m really not sure what she did for a living, but I
think she must have had a respectable job because people respected
her. I want to be respected as she was.
She also inspired me because she had a strong faith in God. She
inspired me by doing that and by helping my mother have faith too. I
will be a strong believer like my grandmother. My grandmother was
only 5’1 inch tall, but she was a big person. I feel lucky to have
known her and to have felt her influence.
