We constantly face problems
everyday in our lives, from choosing what to wear or what to eat; some problems
are much more extreme and that is where this question comes up. “Is it better
to use your knowledge and experience to solve problems than ask other people
for advice?” I believe that it is better to use both ways; we make mistakes and
by learning from them and by asking others for their help, we can succeed in
the future.
People usually choose one way to
figure out their problems; most usually fix it themselves with the knowledge
they have. I believe that this is a good way to figure out one’s problem but
not really an effective way to learn; by having the advantage of learning from
your mistakes and asking people how you can later avoid it, one can definitely
solve all future problems. Through my 16 years, I have experienced a lot of
problems, mainly teenage problems; they are usually problems that are related
to school. The constant worry of failing a test, to the pressure of passing the
SAT, to excelling in all my classes are the problems that I face every day. I’m
not saying that I have never failed a test or anything, it is just some
problems I have faced everyday; I have indeed failed 1 or 2 tests so far, and
by teaching myself to study, I had slowly solved my problem in passing. This
didn't really help that much though, I still struggled on how I would not fail
another test; by asking other people with a better study habit that I had, they
gave me some helpful advice on how to not fail another test. This advice has
worked out good so far, and I have never regretted asking and learning by myself.
Throughout most of my life I have
only faced most problems that either deal with school or what to eat. Food
isn't really a problem for most people but for me it’s important; deciding
whether or not to eat healthy is a problem that I face almost every day. Being
a teenager and an athlete makes my decisions hard; first initial is to eat the
bad food because it tastes good, but after asking my parents what to eat, they
recommended the healthy food. Being me, I did not follow them most of the time.
I have already talked about the school problems; they all deal with my
preparing to enter college. Though being only a junior in high school, I think
that it is important to think about these ahead of time. I think the only major
problems that I face today are how to not sprain my ankle, I do not know how
but I have sprained both my ankles more than I can count. L
I haven’t really faced any major
decision making these past years and I hope it stays that way. My family is
known to ‘take’ their time to make decisions; so I haven’t faced any possible
problems that I have to use this prompt for. My advice for others out there is
not really some advice you should follow; this is a really easy questions for
most people to answer so depending on my answer alone is not really a great
decision. Though, as I think about it,
my decision is not all that bad; combining both using ones knowledge and others
advice, solving problems could be as easy as pie. That is all I can say about
the prompt; I hope this has helped in answering anything similar to the prompt
I and talking about. Thank you. J
