Personal Statement
The reasons I feel like i would be a good candidate for your team because i work hard, I'm dedicated, and very goal oriented.
I want to tell you about an obstacle i have overcame in my life. Since the age of three I have been a wrestler. I have been wrestling for about thirteen years now and within that time period i have had four broken elbows, a broken forearm, two surgeries, and slipped disks.
I feel like my knee surgery was the biggest obstacle I have had to overcome because it was the longest recovery time I've had to endure. Within the time period that i was out i gained 35 pounds and was overweight. It took a lot of dedication and hard work but by next season i was back down. The things i had to do overcome this big obstacle in my life was a good diet (which is very difficult for me) and lots of exercise. I never got down on myself and I just tried to make the best of the situation.
Thank you for your time.
