People should sometimes do things that they do not enjoy doing?

[color=red] Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? People should sometimes do things that they do not enjoy doing? Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer.

People should do sometimes things that they do not enjoy doing at all. Having done many things in my life that I do not enjoy doing made me agree with this statement. However, some might totally disagree with me, but this is my point of view.

I did not enjoy getting up five days a week and going to school. In spite of the fact that I went to school, I did not enjoy doing that. My friend Jarah did not like going to school, simply he chose to drop off. I remember telling my father I would like to do what Jarah Had done exactly. My father refused and got angry. He told me:‘’ you will regret it in the future’'. I Had forgotten the whole story till I graduated. I graduated form high school with honour and the government awarded honour students by offering different scholarships. My scholarship was to enroll in an English university. I ran into Jarah two weeks after graduation in the local mall. I was shocked. He works in a small coffee shop as a waiter, then I remembered my father’s talk, and how we should do somethings we hate doing. I hated studying; nevertheless, I did not stop attending school as Jarah did. I would not have granted the scholarship If I had followed my friend path.

Secondly, many people do not like doing their jobs. They should keep doing them,otherwise they will lose the job. My sister Salwa does not enjoy doing her job as a French teacher. She has no choice, or she will lose it and many bad results may happen. Losing her apartment is one example. Our maid Lalina has worked for 20 years. She admitted that this work is disruptive. She has no choice also, she is the only supporter of her big family and her ill mother.

To sum up, many people should do things that they do not enjoy doing sometimes. The future is not a walk in the park. People should do the job, or things that bother them in order to reach the result. This result might be a salary to support family, a bright future , or to have enough money to fulfill your obligations.

Good afternoon Giovanini. Almost a perfect essay. You really have to concentrate whilst writing. Your essay showed very good, practical examples, but was almost ruined by silly errors. You have the ability, don’t waste it by not concentrating.

Kitos. 9/10

Thanks Kitos. Silly errors again :frowning:

By the way, enrol or enroll ? I think the second one is bastardised by some people lool

Well, I use one L, but I think maybe Americans use two. But for enrolling or enrolled I use two. :-))

Enrollment (American spelling)
enrolment (British spelling).

For the purpose of TOEFL, enroll is appropriate.

I got it. Thank you friends!!

Well Nzuahp. I suppose English is a foreign language to them. LOL.
