Beside pride, loyalty, discipline, heart, and mind confidence is key.
-Joe Paterno
.... Now I would like to show you confidence through a collage of Leo Messi. Leo Messi is a famous soccer player from Argentina. Messi started playing the game of soccer when he was eight years old and was considerably shorter then the rest of the players. Messi was eventually diagnosed by doctors as suffering from a that restricted his height. The medicine for his treatment wasn't cheap and Messi's family struggled to pay for the five hundred medication a month.when Messi got a call at the age of 13 with the chance to play for Barcelona, and have the chance for all the medication to be cover his family packed there bags and moved to Spain.Never losing sit of his dream and his confidence high Messi at the age of sixteen made history, he was the youngest player in the world to score at the professional level.That same year he help push Argentia to win the under twenty World Cup. In recent years, Messi is one of the highest paying soccer player in the league making a grand total of eightenn million dollars. Messi's accomplishments include five La Liga wins, three champions league titles, he holds the UFEA Champions league record with five goals scored in one game, he has also set a world record with a amazing seventy three goal during the 2011-2012 season.In my mind all these accomplishments couldn't have been achieve without confidence. As stated in quotation one, Confidence can help solve all of life's problems, and I strongly believe that with the confidence to pull throw with his growth disease, Messi achieve a great number of success because of his Confidence. This piece can also be reflected back to my poetry, in my poetry the narrator (reading upwards) explains confidence as being the the key to unlock the door of success and as Messi gain his confidence in his soccer abilities, (the key) he was able to push through his disease (lock) and become a all around great soccer player...
