What is my most outstanding achievement to date? That is hard to tell. Throughout my life, I have been dealt a bad hand. As a child, I thought my life was perfect, or as perfect as can be, but as I grew up, I realized my family was not as happy as I thought it was. My mother had been unfaithful to my father and left us for another man. So, the task of raising the children was passed to me and if I had to say what my most outstanding achievement is, it would be taking care of my family. At the age of twelve, I was set this impossible task of looking after my family while my father was working to support us, I did well for some time, but it was a lot to ask for someone so young. I felt as if everything and everyone relied on me. As I grew older, the weight of looking after my siblings grew as well, and as soon as I was able to get a driver's license, I got a job. Over the last couple of years, I have worked at three different companies, all amazing places with amazing people who have helped pull me out of a bad mentality and supported me through the hard times- especially after our home burned down. But growing older has also made me see how far we have come. We live in a stable place with a steady income, and my siblings have grown to be remarkable people. I would not take all the credit for it since my father played a significant role in our upbringing, but I am proud to say that they, my siblings, are my greatest achievement. The experience of raising my siblings has taught me that I am a strong person and can do anything I put my mind to, even in the worst of times. For my future, I hope to find a career I love that will still allow me to look after my siblings and father. No matter what, I will always have the mentality that I have to provide for them even if they do not need me anymore, but I hope they will come to me during hard times. I also hope to help those who are or have gone through situations like mine, where they have put off going to college or pursuing their dreams to support their family.
