Remember The Titans, The Captain Of The T. C. Williams Football Team

In the famous movie Remember the Titans, the captain of the T.C. Williams football team stated, "attitude reflects altitude". When your attitude is positive you can fly higher than the sky, but if your attitude is negative then you can fall deep into the ocean. It has been said that a positive attitude is the key to success in life, and I just so happen to agree. Positivity can make you more motivated. When you are positive, others respect you and want to help you succeed. Also, with a positive attitude it won't matter if you fall down, you will get right back up and try again. Positivity can help make you motivated in a variety of ways. My wonderful friend, Skyler, has the most positive attitude and the most motivation of anyone I have ever seen.
Her attitude motivates her to be nice to everyone she meets, excel in soccer, and do well in school. Skyler's kindness and positivity rubs off on me everyday.
Talking to her makes my attitude positive and motivates me to be kind and work hard. Working hard and being kind to others can help anyone be successful in life. All my life my family has not been the most wealthy, but my dad has always been the most positive person. He went to James Madison University and is now an accountant. My father has always had the motivation and the positivity to keep moving forward. He has gained a lot of respect from his parents and sister. They started respecting him when they realized how positive he was in not so great circumstances. They decided to help him out and now my dad is the head of a tax agency. Having people help you along the way because of your positive can help you so much in life in such a variety of ways. Some say, "who cares if you are positive, just look at Donald Trump!" In reality, there are more successful people who are positive and nice rather than those who are rude and negative. J.K. Rowling, the author of the Harry Potter series, is a very positive woman. The first time she went to a publisher, they said, "we don't want to print this book because it is too out there". She tried time after time to get someone to publish her books, and
finally someone did. Mrs. Rowling's positive attitude made her stand back up and try again every time someone knocked her down. Another example of getting back up and trying again is NBA star Michael Jordan. Michael tried out for his high school basketball team. You would think that he obviously made the team, but he did not. Although he didn't make it, the positivity he had helped him stand back up and try again. In conclusion, I am a firm believer in the quote, "attitude reflects altitude". Without a positive attitude, common people, such as my dad, would not have gained the respect and help to succeed in life. J.K. Rowling and Michael Jordan would not have made it as far as they came without the positivity that they have. Last, but certainly not least, wonderful people, like Skyler, would not have the motivation to be kind and to work hard without a positive attitude.
