VALUABLE MISTAKE
Valuable Mistake
Name
Affiliation
Mistakes are inextricable in our spheres of life. No matter how
much we try, mistakes are bound to be made. The mistakes we
make in life come with lessons that should not be ignored.
While some mistakes may teardown our spirit, we should be
able to pick ourselves up and dust ourselves off with more
resilience and determination to handle more challenges that
come our way (Mankad, Hoey, Jones, Tirukonda, & Smith,
2009).
We all have had our shares of mistakes, and I am no exception.

3. I vividly remember my high school moments. John, a classmate,
and a friend always doing his best to keep me on track. He was
passionate about studies and could never fail to emphasize on
the need of scoring best grades that would see us to college. I,
On the other hand, was more passionate about sports. John was
celebrated for winning class academic trophies as much as I was
celebrated for being a star in co-curriculum activities. This
made our friendship even stronger. We were both school heroes
in our own different ways. Little did I know I was sacrificing
my academic grades for sports.
On our final year in high school pressure was pilling up, the
need to score good grades was imminent. John with his
chauvinistic nature had no problem attaining the much-needed
grades. My performance was on the losing end. Sporting had
taken much of my time, it was then that I realized that most of
my assignments were never submitted. I had a lot of correction
to make and time was running out. The inevitable was going to
happen; I was going to fail.
John proceeded to college. It took me long before I could find
my calling. Talent does not pay, at least that is what I thought,
but I am glad I was wrong. A year later, I received a scholarship
to join the national sporting club and later joined the National
basketball team.
Today as I receive my state commendation trophy for being the
best basketball player of the year, I am glad that I chose this
part. Ignoring academics was a regrettable mistake but choosing
sports also proved valuable.
