Paragraph writing
1. What do you think about the masters’ journey to success?
2. What have you learned from their experiences?
The journey to success for the masters is a journey of hard work and even torture rather than a journey with flowers and applause all the time. As it turned out, their efforts paid off eventually. Therefore, hard as it is, we should stay positive and optimistic, keep a balanced state of mind and stick it out. Keep on trying and some of us will become masters as well.
Thank you
