The most important thing I've ever learned (not really though)

The most important lesson I’ve ever learned is that in order to succeed at something, I really have to put effort into it. This many seem like a broad, stupid topic to talk about but some people just expect things to come to them naturally. Back in high school, I used to be one of those kids that thought he was invincible. I knew from the very start that I had to put effort into my school work in order to understand it and succeed, but I really didn’t realized how much effort it took for my grades to stay afloat. It really started to hit in my junior year when my grades started to slide. I was hanging out with the wrong crowd of people, but do you think I cared? It was important for me to finally hit the bottom and realize that I needed to change my ways. If it weren’t for a downfall, i would’ve never changed. I feel like it really made me have a wakeup call. I am not positive I’m going to write my paper on learning how to do my best, but at least it’s a start to something.
