Life
Solution
Life is a journey filled with countless experiences, emotions, and lessons. Looking back, my life was a tapestry woven with moments of joy, sorrow, success, and failure. Each phase contributed to shaping who I became, teaching me invaluable lessons along the way.
During my childhood, life was simple and carefree. I spent my days playing with friends, exploring the neighbourhood, and indulging in my favourite hobbies. School was a place of learning and fun, where I made lasting friendships and discovered my love for reading and writing. My parents provided a loving and supportive environment, ensuring that I had everything I needed to grow and thrive. They taught me the importance of kindness, honesty, and hard work.
As I entered my teenage years, life became more complex. The pressures of school increased, and I had to balance academics with personal activities. I faced the challenges of navigating friendships, peer pressure, and self-discovery. These years were a time of significant personal growth. I learned to stand up for myself, make independent decisions, and understand the value of perseverance. Despite the ups and downs, my teenage years were filled with memorable moments, such as participating in school events, going on trips with friends, and achieving academic milestones.
Adulthood brought its own set of experiences and challenges. I pursued higher education, which opened new doors and opportunities for me. College life was exciting and demanding. I met people from diverse backgrounds, engaged in thought-provoking discussions, and explored my interests further. This period taught me the importance of time management, self-discipline, and resilience. I also experienced the joy of newfound independence, as well as the responsibility that came with it.
Life also brought moments of personal joy and fulfilment. I cherished the time spent with family and friends, celebrating milestones and creating beautiful memories. Travelling to new places, trying different cuisines, and experiencing various cultures enriched my understanding of the world. These experiences taught me the importance of embracing diversity and appreciating the simple pleasures in life.
Reflecting on my life, I realized that every moment, whether good or bad, played a crucial role in shaping my journey. The lessons I learned, the people I met, and the experiences I had all contributed to my growth and development. Life was a constant process of learning and evolving. It was about finding balance, staying true to myself, and making the most of each opportunity. Life is a beautiful and intricate journey.

It is widely believed that people do their best work when they are promised rewards for their achievements. Our schools and workplaces operate on the assumption that good work occurs when people are competing for grades, money, or recognition from others. In truth, the prospect of rewards provided by others can inhibit and limit people’s drive and creativity. People do their best work when motivated from within by their enjoyment of a particular challenge and their satisfaction in doing something well.
What do you think motivates people to do their best? Plan and write an essay in which you develop your point of view on this issue. Support your position with reasoning and examples taken from your reading, studies, experience, or observation.
