The Rookie

The Rookie Everyone all over the world is affected by many different kinds of texts endlessly every single day. Whether it is a newspaper, a television show, songs, pictures, pretty much anything really. Personally, I have always loved movies. Since childhood I have loved watching any kind of movie. As a result of seeing many various films it would be expected that they have impacted me in some way. One specific movie that changed my life in a significant way was The Rookie. This movie taught me multiple lessons as a kid including to never give up in life, always have something to dream about, hold on to your dreams, and to practice what you preach. Besides the point that the movie The Rookie taught me many lessons fairly early in life, it also had an impact on what I wanted to do when I grew up. After seeing the movie all I wanted was to become a professional baseball player. I had already been playing the sport but then I really wanted to succeed and take it seriously. In the back of my head I have always had the dream of someday playing in the major leagues. This might be a pretty unreasonable goal but I can dream whatever I want.
In life, I believe it is important to have something that you can strive for and dream about. Having dreams also gives hope, which is imperative in this journey we call life. If we all have something to work towards, then I believe it will keep us working hard and keep us driven. An example in my own life used to be to be a baseball player. After I messed up my shoulder meaning I couldn’t play anymore that dream simply wasn’t possible. Now I just have different dreams and aspirations. I want to be an accountant and then to move on to bigger and more major business ventures. This hope can keep me working hard to get to where I want to be and to have hope that I will make it.
From the movie The Rookie, I also came away with the lesson of never giving up. Going along with not giving up on your dreams, is not letting life get you
