Jack is my good friend. A few months ago, I saw a guitar in his room. . I asked him why the guitar was in his room. He told me that he would challenge something difficult before 18 years old, and playing the guitar in public was the first thing he wanted to try. , but now he is confident enough after his first successful show at school.

After watching Jack's first show, I thought carefully about myself that night. . That was because I was not good at writing. Jack's story made me think of the saying: "Where there is a will, there is a way." I couldn't achieve my dream in a day, but I could start to do something easy..

From then on, I wrote every day to improve my writing skills so that I could publish ( 发表) articles in the school newspaper.

Now everything is going well and my writing skills have improved a lot.

Thanks to Jack, my life is full of confidence.
