Life is not easy, so I’d like to say, “When anything happens, believe in yourself.” When I was a young boy, I was too shy to talk to anyone. My classmates often laughed at me. I was sad and I could do nothing. Later, something happened and it changed my life. It was a speech contest. My mother asked me to take part in it. What a terrible idea! It meant I had to speak before all the teachers and students of my school.
“Come on, boy. Believe in yourself. You are sure to win the contest,” said my mother. Then my mother and I talked about many different topics. At last I chose the topic “Believe in yourself”. I tried my best to remember all the speech and practiced it over 100 times. With my mother’s great love, I did well in the contest. I could hardly believe my ears when the news came that I had won first place. I heard the cheers from the teacher and the students. Those classmates who used to look down on me now all said “congratulations” to me. My mother hugged me and cried excitedly.
Since then, everything has changed for me. When I do anything, I try to tell myself to be confident(自信的). I can succeed!
