Personal Statement
Soccer has been my passion for as long as I can remember. It’s something I am very thankful for in my life and has helped me grow into the person I am today. There is no specific moment in my life when I decided that I wanted to play the beautiful sport professionally because it has been my dream for as long as I can remember. One of the reasons I love soccer is the life lessons it teaches you. You can learn so much about yourself, for example: how hard you can pushed, how to work through obstacles, and how to react to difficult situations. When it comes to my training, I am always striving to become better. Every moment I spend on the field is never wasted because every second is valuable and must be used wisely. My work ethic is something I am very proud of and I am always willing to give my very best. On the field, I am a very smart, physical, and technical player. I am also quick on my feet and a fast sprinter.
My passion for soccer is just as big as my passion for learning. When it comes to my education, I am always excited to learn new things. I have put high academic goals in place for myself and have every intention of achieving them. I find myself using the same competitive attitude I have adopted in soccer at school as well. I am always pushing myself to do my best and study routinely. The way I approach learning is slightly different from other students. I don’t like simply being taught things, I like understanding them. Interpretation is something I find very important when it comes to learning new things. I hope to find a college that will challenge me academically as well as on the field.
