Today, Ladies and Gentalmen I am here to present the efforts of trying hard. Trying hard is good for you mind, body and soul. It gives you strength to do things.  It shows how determined you are to make a stand. How you, yourself can make a difference. We all try hard at something. Sometimes we struggle with it, but we keep going. Why?

Simply because we want ourselves to be proud of who we are.

I've seen people yell at others who try really hard at something. They say they don't try. That they aren't good enough.

Well let me tell you something, you are good enough. The fact that you try your best and give everything you've got in you to succeed is good. It's a good thing. Because it means that you are a champion. Because you tried hard. Because you never gave up.

It doesn't matter if you are considered unathletic or dumb. Or nerdy or flirty.

It does NOT matter.

And when you rise up to the top. You'll be happy and really proud. And that is what counts.

I am going to share with you a few stories

There was a girl. She want built for running but she got on the track team and worked so hard. She always got second to last place she worked and worked and got a first place

A boy who was bad at math worked and worked. But couldn't do it. His teacher told him that he want trying. He got 80 percent on  his test and was told he could do better. Buthe was proud.

Both of these people worked. Keep trying and you will get their.

You can do anything.
