Greatest Lesson Learned

I know that it’s cliche but the greatest lesson I learned so far in my life is from my mom. While she didn’t formally tell me any sort of advice that magically changed my view on life and made me “oh so wise” it was a bunch of little things and a lot of leading by example on her part. Unfortunately the lesson I learned is also cliche and is not singular. The lesson’s I’ve learned from my mom make-up a huge part of who I am obviously, and is where most of beliefs and ethics are rooted. The main lesson that I’ve learned is that nothing is too big or too small to to put my energy into; from this I’ve been fortunate to have a lot of opportunities that I would have otherwise overlooked. Learning this lesson has allowed me to be confident about my abilities as well as being unbiased to any situation. The second lesson that has come from my mother is to never take anything too seriously. There is always another chance to do something and it is never to late to stop trying to accomplish something. This lesson has allowed me to never stop trying to do something if i truly want want it. Although my lesson and person I learned this lesson from is cliche I 100% believe that it has made me the person I am today, and I’m not sure what I would be like without these valuable lessons.
