Someone who had a positive impact on my life is my father.

Growing up, my father was not just a parent — he was my role model, my teacher and my biggest supporter. I remember how he used to wake up early every morning, preparing for work with such dedication and responsibility. Even when he was tired, he never showed it. He believed in hard work and always told me, “Success doesn’t come overnight. You have to earn it with effort and patience.”

One moment that really stayed with me was when I failed an important test in school. I was afraid to tell him, thinking he’d be disappointed. But instead of getting angry, he sat beside me, smiled, and said, “It’s okay to fall, as long as you get back up stronger.” From that day on, I started seeing failures differently — as lessons, not setbacks.

Because of my father, I learned the value of perseverance, honesty, and kindness. He never told me how to live — he showed me through his actions. Until today, every decision I make carries a little piece of his wisdom.

He is truly the person who shaped the best parts of who I am.
