A Start to A New Beginning by Moriah - April 2018 Scholarship Essay

A talent is something that you are instantly born with that gives you unique skills and abilities. Talent is set apart from knowledge in that it is not a learned behavior. The Bible tells us that we are all born with distinct talents and gifts that set us apart from each other. “All who are skilled among you are to come and make everything the Lord has commanded” I truly believe I have found my gift, the gift of hemming and assisting on behalf of others.
My career plan is to become a pediatric nurse to help alleviate pain from both kids and their families, or even just putting a Band-Aid on an occasional scraped knee. Because I deem that each and every small act of kindness is another step to changing the world, and what better way to do that than making my life career based on helping others. I am very captivated with caring for children and pursuing a career in medicine. I truly care to make a difference in the lives of the ones I assist and their loved ones by giving them hope of another day.
I plan to pursue my gift through Weatherford College and I strongly believe Weatherford College can help me succeed in those plans and more. I plan to go thorough college by setting S.M.A.R.T goals. Each goal needs to be distinct, achievable, and rewarding in order to move forward. Specific – knowing what you must accomplish. Measurable – I start small and enlarge my goals at the right time. Achievable – I have to be realistic with my goals. Results - by following these steps I should have a positive outcome. Time – have I set myself a reasonable time period to accomplish my task?
It would be an honor if Wise County Antique Auto Club would consider my application for this scholarship. This scholarship will not only bring me closer to paying off the funds to attend college to pursue my career, but it will give me a sense of accomplishment. A Navy Seal once said if you accomplish one task early morning, you will be encouraged throughout the day to take upon more and before you know it, you have conquered the day. If I were to be accepted for this scholarship, it would bring me one step closer to helping those in need and the world is in need of more of those who help rather than those who don't. So I ask, please help me take a step closer to helping our world? I sincerely appreciate the committee’s time in evaluating my application and giving me the opportunity to tell my story. I look forward to hearing from you soon.
