A final speech

Hello, everyone!
Today I'd like to present my persuasive speech on topic "Hardwork is not your enemy, but it is your friend".  Though I've been working hard on it, I think there is always something to be improved in any speech.  I'll be glad to hear your opinion on the speech!

Hard work. What do you feel when hear this word? Does it sound unpleasant or uncomfortable for you?

I believe, many of you, sitting here today, have the same problem – we are afraid of hard work. We don’t like it. Any time we hear the sentence “you have to write a speech, do several tasks and then post them in your blogs till Monday”, we want just throw up our hands helplessly and say to ourselves “Oh…it’s starting again!”

What is our biggest problem? Is it a time pressure and great difficulties? Unbearable demands of work? Or is it something else?

Today I’d like to speak about hardwork, namely, how we see it, how we should see it and what we should do to start working hard.

Hard work is always a stress and pressure. Since school we consider any work as our duty. And if work is a duty, we have to fulfill it in a good way to get noticed and praised.  Jean Piaget, a famous Swiss philologist, believes that any activity is a complicated process of our working brain that includes several important components – first, person is aware what he has to do, secondly, he force himself to perform the task, then, he considers the way how to do it and, finally, picks up the necessary operations for the task. The better result we want, the more effort we should make – and there comes our fears. We are afraid of being mistaken.

Nevertheless, if a person has a plan of action, even a hard work doesn’t seem so difficult and tiring. For example, my uncle and his friend studied in the same university, but one of them reached his life aim whereas my uncle was discouraged in fear of a wasted time and some difficulties.

You should remember, a hard work is not your enemy but it is a key to success. Also, it does not matter who you are and where you come from – everyone is equal before life. If you want to succeed in some scope of action, you should fight your demons – laziness, weariness and resist different temptations. Everything is possible if you are ready to work hard. There are so many examples of people who completely changed their lives only spending more time on work. Even though, our abilities are limited. Some month ago Miles Hilton-Barber was shown on Tv. Watching this man sailing around the world, no one can imagine him to be completely blind. When he was 18, he studied to be a pilot but he started losing his sight and lost it at the age of 20. However, he didn’t give up on his dream and through a hard work became a traveller.

So, what should we do to push ourselves and start working? Our biggest problem is that we see it as a hard work. But we have to find it helpful and pleasant. We should find it motivational, too. For instance, if you face with a heavy project, imagine that it is only a piece of a puzzle that will help you in the future career. Then, make your work more enjoyable. Sometimes it’s better to carry on some things together – do the boring task with your friends.  And, all and all, just do the first step!

Finally, though the phrase “hard work” has the word “hard”, it doesn’t mean something impossible. The only thing we should be aware is that everything is possible. Just be loyal to your dreams and hold your course. If you work hard, you’ll achieve success!
