The person who I admire the most is my father. I admire him because he is strong, a hard worker, and is caring. My father is the person I admire most. He has always been someone I have looked up to. When I was young I looked up to my dad because he would spend time with me and we would have fun together. I also looked up to him because I thought he was smart, because he would always help me with my maths homework without a calculator. As a result of this I learnt how to use mental maths. However, as I have grown older, I realize that there are many other reasons I admire my father. For example, my father is the owner for his company. His job requires him to work long hours, and to always be on the top of his game. Yet every basketball game, boxing match, and concert my sister goes to, my dad is always present. I admire how much my dad cares for his family. I also admire how helpful my dad is. He is the one person I feel comfortable asking anything to. I trust his advice, and even after long days at work my dad will always listen to me. Overall, my dad is a great person, who I highly admire.
The top reason I admire my dad is he is determined and dedicated. These two qualities are ones that I hope I can carry on throughout my life. Watching my dad strive to reach business goals, or work extra hours just to make one more deal have inspired me to set high goals for myself and work extremely hard to reach them. I admire how my dad’s qualities have the ability to inspire me to become an Engineer and to pursue my dream as an NBA player too.
I admire him because he is also hard working. He was always determined to work as hard or as much as possible to make sure his family had what it needed or wanted. He never complained that he was tired, underpaid or overworked. As long as his family was OK, he was OK. I realized this when I started paying for my games and shoes. At this point I saw how hard it’s to pay bills and also able to afford to send all his children to private school.
Because of his caringness and consideration for others, he would do anything to help where he could. All the good he did was done low-key, without calling attention to himself.I remember when my grandfather was staying with us for over a year when he was diagnosed with cancer allowing my mother to take care of her father like his own father. I noticed all these qualities gradually. As I grew from a toddler to a responsible teenager, my dad’s qualities became more apparent to me. No matter how tired he was from his long work week, he would be up bright and early Saturday morning to attend any of our sporting events, tournaments, and then chauffeur us and our friends to parties or school dances. He was always very protective and kept a watchful eye over us.
I admire a lot of people but the person I admire the most is my father. This is because my father is the one who knows what is best for me. He is the most important person in my life. There is no reason for me to live without him by my side. He is the one who helps me grow up, gives me advice, takes care of me, shows me the right way, always support me greatly, and does many things just for me.
In my life, I never see a best person who can be similiar to my father. My father is incomparable. He will never make any grunts and groans but always being patient with our bad manners. I realised so much sacrifices he had spent on us, but he will never ask for return except for an education. In every aspect of my life my father continuously pushes me to succeed. Whenever I feel like giving up, or have a question, I know I can always call my father for advice. The lesson, though, is to look for the value in everything. Don’t overpay. Realize that we need to be good stewards of what we have. Don’t waste anything. Leaders don’t wish for the impossible; they create results with what they have.
From him I have also learned that sometimes you have to put others needs ahead of your own, but not to the point they will begin to take advantage on you. His strength seems to be unbreakable during hard times, and is extremely determined to accomplish anything he sets his mind on. I hold great esteem for how he stands up for what he believes in, and will never back down. I have always admire his open mind, compassion, and sense of understanding. He is a very reserved man, but has a great sense of humor, and always know how to put a smile on my face. This is why I admire my Father.
