I have played many leadership roles throughout the years of being a part of the community, and as I have gotten older I have realized how important involving myself in activities is. Over the past few years of spending many hours helping I have realized that it has helped me become a better person in many ways. I have had the opportunity to learn some life skills and was able to realize how much of a difference just one person could make for the community. That being said, I was able to shape some of my own goals by volunteering at the Riddle Fire Department as well as taking part in wrestling stats. I am more than willing to help anyone in need and I want to set a goal to continue to do that throughout my life. I would love to influence others to be a part of their small community and help around when needed or to speak up about things when there is a need for change as input from other people can benefit anything. I strive to impact my community and become a role model for any person to look up to, and I am motivated to reach that goal. I have set many goals in my life, but being a part of my small community taught me to create bigger goals for myself that I know I can achieve in such a limited amount of time for example I set a goal to take part in leadership roles once I get into college and I will strive to make an impact anywhere I decide to continue my life. The small community that I live in has shown me to stay motivated and follow the dreams of the career I choose to continue my life with and to never give up even when things become hard to get. I know with time I will be fully capable of finishing college and having the job I have wanted for many years now, I wouldn't have been able to figure out a perfect career path if it wasn't for the community and my loved ones telling me to follow my dreams and never give up on something I want. The community has always been small but one of the best things someone could be a part of and I hope that I will be able to be part of a community to give kids like me the same views.
