Think about the individuals who have helped form the individual you are today (parents, family members, siblings, coaches, teachers, etc.) Pick one and describe how this person has impacted you and the result of this influence.
For me, I would probably say both of my parents. When growing up, my mom probably had more of an impact because we were more alike and she got me better. She understood me as a person and allowed me the freedom to make the mistakes and taught me how to learn from them as well. Once in my 20's, my father and I became closer and he has impacted my later years by being a friend and a parent. He listens and gives advice when asked but never expects me to follow that advice unless it is what is best for me. My parents influence me because they have always been open and honest with me and have respected all of my choices and even supported those that they might have thought were not great. Much of the interpersonal person I am today can be attributed to both of my parents based on my relationship with them at different stages of life.

Many people have helped form the individual that I am today. One of those people would be my Sensai (karate instructor) Mr. Banister. I started karate when I was ten years old. The first time I met Mr. Banister he seemed really strict and kind of scary. However, as I got to know him more and trained with him more, I got to see a different side of him. Mr. Banister taught me how to defend myself in dangerous situations. He also taught me to be a polite and repectful person. Karate teaches you a lot about self discipline and perseverance. I'm seventeen now, so I have know Mr. Banister for about seven years. I spent a lot of my time at the dojo (karate school) trainning with him. With myself being so involved with karate, Mr. Banister has been a huge part of my life, and has impacted me in many ways. Because of him, I have learned to be a repectful and responsible citizen, and I have also learned how to defend myself if necesarry. Mr. Banister has helped make me the person I am today, and I couldn't thank him enough.

Personally the people that have helped me become the person i am today are the people that i interact with everyday or almost everyday. For one my mom, she has gon throgh hell and back for me and my brothers, and she does not get enough credit for it. She keeps me focused on my future while on the other hand my dad keeps me intrested on the now. My mom is guiding me to college and i appretiate that, and my dad is well keeping me level headed when itcomes to all the stresses of graduation and the transition to adulthood. As appose to my teachers who i see for 55 minutes five times a week. Mr.Kay and Mr.Pouliot have been the only two teachers that have been able to get my attention and help me learn on the way. They have taught me how to be alittle more patient and how to have a fun stress free time in school while still learning the neccessary tools for success.

lots of ppl have made a big impact on my life but my best freindhas to be the most infleunail he is just all in all a good person hes selfless and i look up to him and always have hes helped me make right choices tons a times i dont wanna get into them tho cause u kno its personal but hes just the best freind ill ever have
The one person that has impacted me most in my life is my mom. Im exactly like her. She made me who i am today. I look up to my mom. I tell my mom everything, well mostly. She can help me through anyhting and shes always there when i need her. We are the same, she even acts childish like a teenager, but thats what i love about her. we fight all the time, but no matter what i know she will always be there for me.
There are many people who have helped me become the person I am today. My parents would have to be the people who had impacted me the most. My mom has always been the controlling parent who would never let me do anything. My dad would be that parent who didn't care what I did as long as it didn't involve his taking me anywhere. Have two very different parents It kind of equaled out. My mom is the one I would go to for advice and my dad is the one I would go to make me laugh. My mom was the one who had got me into cheerleading and dance and that definitely impacted the life in a bog way and if it wasn't for her I would be who I am today. My dad hasn't impacted me in the same way, but he does let me hang out with my friends and go out more than my mom does and that impacts me as well.
Since i've been younger my dad has always been their for me. He has pushed me to be the best i can be in life for anything. My dad has been there through thick and thin. My dad understands everything i say and takes it into consideration. He gives me good advice in life and helps me with most of my problem. One thing i will always remember that he says is the more time you put in the more you'll get out of it. This comment has pushed me through some hard times with sports and school. I think now that I'm older i can appreciate so many things that he has done for me. Even though i've had fights with him i know he's trying to make me a better man and i know he'll always be there for me.
My two parents are who made me who I was today. My mom always taught me simple things like cooking, school, responsibility, etc. She would always be the one who helped me with things. She taught me what I needed to know. My dad on the other hand taught me everything I do today and have as hobbies. My dad taught me how to hunt and be a man. He never did help with school. I grew more towards my dad because he did more boy things unlike my mom. Currently I tend to be just like my dad because its who I am. I like to fish, hunt, and shoot due to his influence. I will never change that.
Many pepole have helped make me who i am today. My parents and my bestfriend brittney. My parents have taught me mostly everything i know. They taught me how to be good and acomplish anything that i put my mind too. My bestfriend is always there and helps me with everything. Shes always there for me and has also made me the person i am today. I am so greatful to have such great parents and bestfriend.

My mom has been the one who really had the most influence in my life. Until a few years ago, my mom stayed home in order to take care of me, my sister, and my brother. Looking back on it, I was really lucky to always have someone there for me. As a child, my mom told me to work for what I want, and to always have a positive attitude. I think that my personality and outlook on life is a lot like hers in that way. My mom also always told me to follow my dreams, and was the first person to help me achieve these goals. When I was seven, I really wanted to dance on my studio's dance team, and my mom immediately looked into what I had to do in order to achieve that. I was on the dance team for 6 years after she did that for me. My mom has always been supportive like that. I think that I have more confidence in myself today because of how my mom brought me up when I was a child.
Someone that has impacted me and made me the way I am today is probably my grandma. My parents can be great but I think they may be going about things wrong with me and are really strict and we get into fights a lot. My grandma is always the one I come running to and she can always pick me up and make me feel better. We are a lot alike and she really understands me. She has always been there to listen to me and gives really great life advice and encourages me. She has always been really down to earth and very loving and doesn't let things get to her very easily. And I think some of that has rubbed off on me. She's very positive and I get my outlook on life from her. My grandma influences me to be a better person and I'm very thankful to have her as such a big part in my life.
There area an exceptional amount of people who have helped from the person I am today. I'd have to say the ones who have helped the most would be my parents. It's always been easier to connect with my mom than my dad. My dad hardly ever talks to me and we have nothing in common, at least not anymore. When I was younger I was extremely quiet and shy, which is the way my dad has always been. I started to talk a little more with my mom around, but outside the house I was like a mime. My mom taught me to be myself and to learn from my mistakes. She also taught me to live in the present instead of dwelling on the past, yet I'm still having trouble with that. Both my parents taught me to stand up for myself and my friends. The person I am now is because of my parents. If it wasn't for them I wouldn't be who I am today.

There are a lot of people in my life that have helped me get where I am but the one I think has made the biggest impact, in a positive way, would be my aunt Mandy. She is the person I look up to. She is the person I go to when I need advice. She took care of me when I was a child and then I lived with her again when I was 13. I do fight with her but that’s what people do. She understands me. She is family and my best friend. I don’t get to see her as much I want but I always look forward to spending time with her. Mandy has helped me get through my toughest of times and does more that she realizes. Some things she does for me are very extreme but I think that just shows how much she cares. I hope she realizes how much I care and appreciate her.
for me the most influential people in my life were my family. While growing up, they showed me how to be a polite person, and a more responsible kid. When i was growing up, my family didnt have to much money, so we had to make do with what we had. My mom and dad never gave up, and that showed me that when times are hard, theres always a way to come out of it ok. They always were there for me and helped me when i was in trouble, and i want to be as humble as they are. My dad also showed me more things like how to ice fish, work on cars , and stuff like that. But my mom showed me things like respect and responsibility. and that helped shape the person who i am today.
I would like to give credit to my friends dad Mr.Ed. Mr.Ed is one of the coolest people i know. He has taught me a lot about myself, and stuff about the world, and people, and lots of different things. He has also showed me what it means to be hard working; Mr.Ed is not the most financially wealthy person in the world, but he woks his ass off to support his kids. He has two really crappy jobs that only give him four hours of sleep every day. Mr.Ed has been a role model for what I should do, and what I shouldnt do as a parent. I can honestly say that this man has influenced me more than anybody else in my life, except my parents.
A person who has made the biggest impact on my life is probally my mother. She knows whats best for and even though I don't listen to her all that well it still gets through to me. She has gone through so much to help make me live a very comforatble life and I am very greatful for that. Me and my mom get along very well, espeacially when my dads not around. She an easy person to get along with, even though we fight very often, but shes normally right during a fight( I hate to admit that). She has helped shape me as the person I am today, she tells me not to take shit from other people, and to just give it right back if their being annoying. She has always been the person I go to if I am having a hard time, mostly because I cant take adivce from dad becuase he gets to indepth and I zone out. But I love my mom and I am so greatful to have such a great person that I can always go to.

I think the person who has made the most difference in who I am today would be my dad. He understands me and listens to what I am saying. He has helped me through situations and told me what he thinks is best my whole life. He has helped me through trouble and made all the difference. Everytime I find myself stuck in a situation he has helped me and I know I can trust what he says. He went through alot of the same stuff that I have as a teenager and knows what is best and what is not. He pushes me to be the best that I can. Overall, I would say that he is doing his best to make sure that I am successful in life and helping me take it ones step at a time.
So many different people have shaped me to be who I am today. Its hard to pick just one of them, but I would have to say that my grandma and grandpa have influenced me a lot. As a little kid, my grandma was always there for me to talk to. I was always the youngest and so sometimes I felt like what I had to say wasn't important. But, my grandma was always there to listen and give me advice. I know everything she says to me is always for my best interest. My grandpa and I have gotten a lot closer as I have gotten older. He is one of the people who got me into hockey when I was 4. And he has helped me along each year ever since I started. I know although he can be harsh at times, its only because he knows how good of a hockey player and person I can be. I can trust him to always be honest with me about anything and I like that we have such a good relationship.

Out of all the people i have come in contact with and grown up with all my life, i would have to say my parent would have to be the two most important to me. To pick between the two though of who has made me who i am i would have to say my dad is bigger. In the family, theres usually the rule enforcer which i would have to say is my mom. The more living style part and responsibility part of me has to come from my mom for all the things she has taught me such as respect and maturaty. On the other side, i have my dad who aside from being a parent is one of my best friends. My dad is always one to joke around with me about stupid things i have done or other things. Aside from support gaven to me in school by him, i also recive many things in which he believes will improve my skill in different sports. When i began playing hockey at a young age, my dad knew i loved the game and would keep playing for many years so he was willing to build me my own ice rink in my back yard for me to learn and get better. About three years ago, my dad also noticed me getting more and more into baseball. Following the ice rink, my dad then purchased and put up a batting cage and pitching machine in my back yard to improve my hitting skills. I love my dad more than anything not only cause he is willing to go out and have with me and allow me to have fun, but because he also shows me that he knows theres a time for everything. One of those times is school, and he believes that during those 6-7 hours at school i need to put all the fun away and really focus on the subject being taught and to get good grades. My dad has shown and taught me most of the percentage of things i know today and is willing to do what ever it takes to make me better at something.

A lot of individuals have shaped me into the person I am today. My parents obviously have had a great effect on me, along with my coaches, but it doesn't come close to my sister. I have to say out of anyone she has impacted me the most. Starting from when I was only three years old, she protected me from my parents divorce. Growing up we fought a lot, but looking back I know it made us closer. I learned what not to do by the mistakes that she made and the impact it had on her life. Once I was older and understood more, we became best friends. She encourages me to this day in whatever dream I want to fulfill. I know that no matter what she will alway be there and never give up on me. She has made me who I am.
There has been many people who have helped form the individual i am today. But, i think my mom play a huge role in this. My mom is the one who is nurturing and is always there when i need her. She is the talker. If i have a problem, then she is the first one to talk about it and make me feel better by taking me shopping or something haha. If i didnt have my mom, my life would be a lot differnt. Theres just somethings that my dad just wouldnt get. My mom was always understanding, and accepting about everything in my life. If i came home and said i failed a test, she would say just try better next time. Or i didnt want to dance anymore, and she was totally understanding and was open to the fact that i didnt enjoy it anymore. If it wasnt for my mom, i would definetly not be the person i am today. She has pretty much taught me everything i need to know. From this, i think this has taught me to be a better person, and hopefully when i become a mom, i will be just like her.
I think my siblings have impacted me the most. They have always told me to do what I wanted only if its really what I want. Even if it was the wrong decision they would still support me. They have always been there for me through the rough times. They have made me who I am today. I look up to them more than anyone I know. Whenever I need someone to talk to I know that I can go to them and they will help me out. I couldn't thank them for all the times they have been there for me. But also, I wouldn't ask for anyone else better to influence me and tell me what is right.

Two people who have influenced me in my life are my brother and sister. All thorughout my childhood I did everything with my brother and sister. When we lived in germany and often went to visit other nearby countries, we always had fun, even on long car rides there. Over the years My brother and sister have really had an impact on who I am as a person. I used to do whatever my brother did, I wanted to be like him. Im thankful my brother wasnt the kind of person who made bad choices, because then I would have made the same mistakes. I usually talk to my sister more than my brother, its always been like that. My sister will cover for me if I ask her to, which is always cool.

The person that has made me who I am today is my mother. She taught me what is right from what is wrong. She has always been there to help me whenever I needed it. She assists me with my essays or blogs since I have a hard time writing. Due to her help checking one of my essays, I ended up winning the D.A.R.E. essay award. Mom taught me to look on the positive side of life and to respect every one even if they don’t do the same to you. As a result I am not a negative or disrespecting teen. This positive attitude helps me approach even the things I struggle with appropriately. She definitely loves me unconditionally. Because of what she has taught me; I am who I am today.
Despite how much I love my parents, I cant say that either of them have really impacted the person I am today. Obviously I am like them, things like genes and growing up in an enviornmet with them, but in a lot of ways I strive to be what my parents arent. For good reason too. There are two people in this world who have impacted me a lot. People I look up to as role models and try to be like. Denise has been like a second mother to me. In reality, we have no genetic relation, but I have known her since I was 5 and I go to her with pretty much every problem I have. She has always been there for me. the thing about Denise, is that she knows what her weaknesses are and she knows how to get past them. She has made a lot of mistakes, but she has also learned from them. Everyone should be like that. Its not a bad thing to make a mistkae, unless you dont learn anything from it. The second person is Brandon. Brandon was always himself. No matter who he was around he was himself. He never changed to fit the group he was in, and he never caved and did something he thought was wrong or didnt want to do. I want to be like that. Before I met Brandon I was that person. I am and was fat, and I wanted people to like me so i was whoever fitted into the situation best. I did this so kids didnt make fun of me. Brandon taught me that I didnt need to change who I was. I was perfect exactly the way I was and I should only change if i wanted to, not because other people wanted me to. He taught me that I should be friends with people who like me for who I am. Another important life lesson. These two people have had the biggest impact on my life byfar, and I can never thank them enough.
The person that has impacted my life the most would have to be my mom. Yes you can call me a momma's boy but it is true. She has helped me thru so much of my life and i hope she doesnt stop. She is there for me when im sick or not, when i am happy or sad. It doesnt matter what i do , she will always love me. My mom has encouragded me to do what ever i want and be the best i can be. She think im good at anything i do, even tho i DON'T. My life has been pretty easy becuase of her. She wants me to have it easy and i admire that. My dad on the other hand wants me to work hard and build character. I also admire thqat too. Eventhough it may be hard, i must learn to fight for something and get of the thinking thaqt everything should be givin to me. My life has been great thanks to both my parents, not just my mom. They both play their roles but i guess i am and will always be a momma's boy.

Many individuals have formed me nto the individual I am todey. The person that has impacted me the most is my parents. My dad probably had the biggest influence on me when was younger. When I was younger I wanted to be just like my dad. I would do everything that he did because I thought it was the cool thing to do. My mom had another big impact on m life. She would try to help from doing things that were wrong or from doing something the wrong way. I think that both of my parents have had a realy big impact on the type of ndividual I am today.

People i would have to say that have really influenced the individual i am today would be my coaches. They showed me how to be tough and not feel bad for myself when im in pain, like exercising. They showed me that when i get knocked down, to get back up and keep going. The result of this influence, is that i'm a lot tougher person that i used to be before eigth grade, and i think that it has built my confidence, and made me a better, stronger person. They have also showed me how to work really hard, and push myself. Now whenever i have a challenge, in school or in working out, i take the challenge and i achieve better grades in school, and i push myself and add more weight when working out. It shows when it pays off and i get better grades and do better in sports.
There are multiple people who have impacted my life and made me the person I am today. Those people are my basketball coaches. My basketball coaches taught me more then basketball, they have helped me to become more of a positive person. They help me in many ways on and off the court. My coach that I currently have has also motivated me to become a better student. Coach Fugate, my AAU coach and my JV coach from last year has also made me better as a person. I thank them a lot because of how much the impacted my life and made me the individual I am today.
I believe my parents have influenced me the most. They influenced my morals and values that I live by even today. When I stray from them I automatically feel guilty and want to fix it. My morals and values have made me who I am today. My parents have always been there for me. They showed me how to be caring and love. They showed me whats right and wrong also. They will always be with me through my consious. This influences the choices I make. I believe that all these reasons and more have made me a better person. I know how to keep out of trouble and suceed in life. I'm confident in myself and the choices I make.

Honestly, I dont think I have one specific person who helped me become who I am today. It would be my friends and my family though. Since I grew up with them, I tend to pick up on some of the things my parents do, or I learn from their mistakes and become a better person because of it. My brother and all my cousins around my age are guys, so growing up I was a tomboy and they made me a tougher perosn. I don't let things get to me and I stand up for myself and others. Being around my friends usually put me in a good mood. My best friend and I are two completly differnt people but yet we have alot of things in common. We learn from each other and help each other out.
I think that my parents have helped me become the person I am today. I have a great family, in my opinion, and I wouldn’t ask for any other. My parents are the ones you’d call best friends yet parent when they need to be. I have a good relationship with the both of my parents which makes me very open with them. I tell my parents almost anything. Even though they are good parents, sometimes the way they are makes me more cautious on things. Since I know what my parents expect of me, I don’t do anything they would find wrong or disapproving. So, sometimes I wish they could be less uptight on things. I feel like because I am the first born I am more held back from opportunities that strike. Aside from that, they helped me become a good person. My parents always put others before them, which sometimes causes issues, but also makes me see that when the people around you are happy, it makes you happy. I learn a lot from my parents and I would like to learn more. I appreciate everything they do, and I hope I grow up and make good decisions like they have done with me. As an adult, with my own family, I may do some things differently, but I won’t ever forget what my parents did for me, therefore helping me become the person I am now.

He person that has probable infulemced my life the most has probably been my dad. He is very succesful in his life. However, he didnt just inherit it. He inspires me because he had to work for it. I want to be similar to him when I grow up (only cooler). He owns his own business and makes a lot of money, and he has a nice family to come home to after work. He know how things work in the real world too. While I do think for myself, he has influenced my political opinions. He also gives me advice on problems int life, and he understand me as an individual and as a hard working person. Throughout his life he has never underestimated the pros of manual labor. He knows a lot about cars and everything else. I want to be similar to him when I get older. Overall, my dad has contributed to many aspects of my life and I look up to him.
One person who has really impacted me and influenced me has been by brother, Ryan. All through out my childhood, I wanted to be just like him and do everything he did. I thought he was the coolest person ever, because he was older. He would never admit to it, but he was alwaus protective over me in a way. I used to come home from school crying, because of what boys said to me, how they were making fun of me, and being mean. Ryan always said that if any boy ever gave me any trouble, to just let him know and he'll take care of it. He was there for me in ways I didn't think he would. How Ryan has influenced me was last year when Ryan wasn't doing well in school because he was really lazy, I saw how mad my parents were towards him. It scared me so much. Than this year, my grades shot up, it was because of him. I know it's kind of weird, and the opposite, but Ryan influenced me and impacted me, by me not wanting to be like him for once. This year, Ryan has changed. He has showed that behind every one's deep shell, theirs a real person with real emotions. He has helped me stand on my ground. Not to let people walk over me and to stand up for myself. Ryan, though sometimes I hate him, he is by far the best brother in the world.

I think the person that has impacted my life the most is hard to say. I guess i would say my brother Hart impacted my life the most. when i was growing up i always wanted to be just like him. believe it or not, in elementary school i wanted to shave my hair to be like him (thank goodness my mom refused!) he was soo easy going that anyone could talk to him and feel comfortable around him. he was so funny and smiley that you cant help but smile when you were around him. i just thought that he was the coolest! thanks to his influence i think i really learned how important my family is to me. and that family is the MOST valued thing in life and i should cherish mine. i owe so much to my brother because hes really helped me develop into the person i am now.
There have been many people who have impacted in my life. The people that have impacted my life the most are my parents. My parents, most of the time, let me learn from my mistakes. Otherwise they let me do something stupid and, if something happens, I won't do it again. My mom is the easy going one, my dad is more strict, most of the time. My dad would be the one who has impacted the most on how I behave, even though he would probably say I am an ass sometimes. I have gotten closer to my dad as I get older, but sometimes that is hard because we don't always see eye to eye. So over all because of them I have become the patient, kind, and respectful person I am today.
I'm choosing my Mom as the one who influenced me the most. My parents were divorced at a young age and I've lived with my mom since I can remember. She is the one who has taught me the most. Trying to help me threw school and helping with my future. All the advice she has given me has helped me so much threw out my life. And if she never gave that advice then I don't know if I could have made all the right choices. We don't get along all the time but she has helped me so much. I honestly don't think I would be the same person if she didn't give me all that advice. I'm so thankful for everything.
Many people have formed the person I am today. Friends, family, and even some of my teachers. My parents definitly have helped form the individual I am today. I am very close with both of my parents. I think my dad understands how to deal with teenagers more than my mom. He knows when to give me freedom or and when he needs to shorten the rope a little. I am just like my dad. We have the same personality and sense of humor. I think this why why we get along so well. We, like everyone esle, sometimes get in fights but I know that he is always there for me. As I was younger my mom was kind of a "worry wart" but now that I've grown up she has given me the freedom I need and I think because of this we are becoming closer. I look up to both of my parents and hope that one day I can be like them.

The individuals who have impacted my life the most are my parents. My mom and dad always work together at everything, and they make the family a priority. They both always teach me to go for what I want and to always do my best. My mom specifically has taught me to be strong and keep your head held high even when you are at your worst. She has battled many different health issues but still has not given up. My dad has taught me to think straightly. He almost always keeps his cool in tough situations and knows how to work through problems logically. My dad actually turns everyday issues I tell him about into a lesson that I can understand which I think has most definitely helped round me as a person. They both have taught me that something is only worth doing if I love it or I grow as a person from it. Both of my parents help me through my problems, care about me, and love me. Altogether, I think my parents have truly helped shaped me into who I am today.
One person that has impacted me is my friend Timmy. I have only known Timmy for about three years but our friendship feels like it has been forever. Timmy and I met sophomore year. The beginning of our friendship was a little rocky but after we got over everything we really got close. We help each other in hard times and encourage each other always. Timmy helped me become the person I am today. I feel like he really understands me and I understand him. He's like a big brother to me. Timmy has helped me become a stronger person all around. He's kind of like my mentor in a weird sort of way. Timmy doesn't judge and is just a really good person. I'm so glad that I met him and I'm glad he is in my life. I feel like he will be one of the people I will stay friends with after high school and college and into my adult life.

well i would have to say many people have helped me grow as a person. But the person who helped me the most would probably be my mom. My mom has always been there for me and always know the right things to say. She helped me make the right choices when it came down to it. Also she helps me get through school the best she can. as i started to grow up i started to become closer and closer to my mom. Now i would have to say she is more of a bestfriend than a mom. I can go to her for everything. She always helps me and leads me in the track for my life.
Over the years while growing up I have had many people help me make the person I am today. I think that my family has mostly nade me the person I am today. For example my mom has taught me to be respectful to other and be polite and stuff like that. My dad taught me how to stick up for myself and not take any crap from anyone. Also the rest of my family helped me along. I think that because in my family we are very sarcastic and they have taught me not to take things too serious. Also it taught me to not let things really get to you. Even though both my parents have helped me out through life I seem to be more like my dad. We are just alike. He has taught me how to hunt and fish. Another person who influeced me would be my grandpa because he has taught me a lot about about things that intrest me, such as how to drive a tractor and teaching me things about farming and repairing cars.
Many people have helped shaped me as the individual i am. Of course my parents have been there and impacted my life, however i am choosing a former basketball coach, who i have learned from for many years. I started playing for Coach Fugate when i was in seventh grade and played for him until last year on the JV team at Lakeland. Coach Fugate not only taught me how to play the game of basketball but he also taught me many crucial life lessons. He taught me the value of hard work and said if you don't let anyone outwork you, you will be successful not only in basketball but also in life. I am truly glad to have had the opportunity to have Coach Fugate as a coach. I have very much respect for this man and would do just about anything to repay him for what he has made me, a better stronger basketball player and a better stronger young man.

Many people have helped me become the person that I am today. The person that stands out th most for me is my mother. She has always bee tht person that expects the most out of me and is always in my corner. She has always made sure that I have had the support to accomplish my goals... My mother and I have a very open relationship an I know she will always give me her honest opinion, even if it is not what I want to hear. Her number one goal in her life was to teach my sister and I to be caring people and that it was all up to us to make a differene in our lifes. Her influence has made me the person that I am and I know because of her I will one day accomplish my goals. The person I am today is from the support from my family, friends and teachers (Mr. Kay); but the prson that has impacted m the most is my mother an because of her I have the knowledge and skills to succeed in life.
For me I would have to say my parents have influenced me into who I am today. To me, my dad has always been the one who is nicer. My dad was the one who understood me better. My mom helped too but I don't think as much as my dad. I don't get along with either of my parents very well. But I get along with my dad better than my mom. But both of them have taught me how to be respectful and kind.
I would have to say both my mom and dad. My dad and I get along so much better then me and my mom do. I can be completely honest with my dad, even if its something i know he doesnt wanna hear, I still tell him to make the relationship stronger. My mom and I get along on and off. She understands the things about me that my dad wouldnt. My dad helps me with alot, and give me advice on what to do. My parents are pretty straight. They let me do what I want, as long as I stay out of trouble. They have influenced me because there always honest with me, and they dont get in the way of my personal life. They respect the choices i make, even if it bothers them.
alot of people have had an impact on who i am today. the most notable of which would definatly be my sister, Kim. shese always been there to take care of me, and me for her. she is the more girly versoin of me, so we kinda even eachother out. she is honestly one of my closest friends. shes always the first one that i go to for advice, and she always comes to me when she has problems. And when one of us screws up, the other always helps sort things out. With out her id probably go insan. Shes always been a really good role model too. she got really good grades and got into a good college. that motivates me to do the same. she has definatly had a huge impact on my life.
A ton of people come to mind in my life. The first that come to mind are my parents, but espcially my dad. He has made me the man i am. He taught me just about everything i know. My mom has also done a ton for me. I dont know where Id be without them. I know you said pick one but also my grandpa comes to mind. He was the perfect example of how I wanna live. Not worry about money, have a lot of fun, and put family first. I want to be just like him when I grow up. Have all my kids spend time with me, and hand down tradions to them like my dad did to me, espicially with deer camp. That is one of the longest family traditions. All of these people have made me a better person.

The person who has the most impact on my life and has helped shaped me into what I am today would be my sister. My sister is always their for me, the good and the bad. She is one of my best friends.Me and her are very alike and that makes us very good friends. Whenever I am not hanging out with my friends I am hanging out with her. She always sticks up for me when I get in trouble, even though sometimes it does more worse than good. She always listens to me and gives good advice. She seems to be able to do pretty much anything with ease and excel at it. I can say that she has been a major part in my life and has done a great deal to mold me into the person that I am.
The person that has mad the biggest impact on my life is my dad. He was always hard working and always there for everyone. He work all the time just so me and my brother wouldnt go without. He was always happy and he always had a smile on his face. This has motivated me to want to be hard working to be happy. When he died it also had a huge influence on me, obviously. I was ten years old when he died and it taught me so many things that i might not have learned otherwise. It helped me to become a more greatful person instead of taking things for granted.
My mom is a huge part of who I am today. I am really close to everyone in my family, and that bond is very special to me. My mom though has always been there the most for me. She makes me laugh every single day which is kind of weird because she has a really dry sense of humor. My mom is honestly one of the strongest people I know, and I am really proud of her. She has made me everything I am today. I am loud, opinionated, and very stubborn just like her. She taught me all my values, and is very kind. She always puts others before herself, which I hope very much to be like her when I am older. All in all my mother has shaped who I am as a person, and I am very happy she is in my life.

Think about the individuals who have helped form the individual you are today (parents, family members, siblings, coaches, teachers, etc.) Pick one and describe how this person has impacted you and the result of this influence.
So far in life my parents have had the greatest influence in my life. I believe kids are a product of ther parents. My dad, is someone that most peopleare afraid of. However to me i know a different side. This has influenced me by teaching me to stick uo for myself, and have tough skin. Secondly, hes been there for me as a coach. Hes taught me the game the right way, the way it should be played. I have a great relationship with my dad because of all the time we have spent together at hockey. Next, my mom. She has influenced me witht he exact opposite way as my father. She is the calm and loving one. This have given me almost two personalities which i feel is a good balance.
So many people have impacted my life, its hard to say which person has the most. I like to think that every single person I meet impacts my life in some way, even if it is small. If I had to pick one person, I would have to say my father. I have more in common with him then anyone else I know, which only makes sense, but I just feel like I can talk to him abouit absolutely everything. I have an emense respect for my father and his opinions mean a lot to me. My dad is the one who got me into music and buddhism. He taught me to appreciate all around me and to seek the real truth. As a whole, both of my parents have been really supportive of me. They give me the freedom to grow as an individual and a person in general. I love them a lot and my life would be completely different without them in it. I just wouldn't be the same person I am today.

My Mom has had a huge impact in my life. She probably has had the largest impact on my life; she gave birth to me (he he). She has always been a loving and caring person - a person that has made numerous people feel good even in the rough times. My mother (along with my father) has taught me to be honest, responsible, and hard-working. We have been though good times together, and rough times together. She has always been a person that would listen to my ideas (and helped me to learn to express my ideas), even when others wouldn't. I respect her very much for these things. The influence that she has had on my life is immense; I am very lucky to have her as my mother.
Throughout my entire life, I have been impacted by so many different people in so many different ways. To be completely honest, I can not pick just one person, however, I will limit myself to three people who I have most recently found to have a huge impact on my life. The first person is my grandma who has always influenced me to use my imagination, be creative and dream big. I can go to my grandma for things I would never be able to talk to my parents about. Due to her influence, I always follow my dreams and I am not afraid to unleash my creativity. The second person who has had a major influence on my life is Megan Fraser. Especially recently, this girl has been the one person who actually cares and stands by my side through it all. Her loyalty and selfless, caring personality has influenced me to always stay true to myself and be an overall better person. I am not always that great of a friend to her and I never her show her any appreciation, yet unlike my other friends, she is always, I mean ALWAYS there for me. Now the last person has by far had the largest impact in making me the individual that I am today. You see, my mom and I used to be really close when I was a lot younger. She worked extremely hard to create a wonderful life full of fun experiences and laughter. She constantly encouraged me to live for the moment and to always have fun. In recent years, I started to forget all the things my mom did for me and we stopped talking as much which made us rarely spend any time together. When we were together we would always fight and argue. In the last couple weeks however, my mom has been really sick, in and out of hospitals getting tests done. It has really helped me realize I shouldn’t forget about the ones who mean the most to me. We are still waiting to get the results of her most recent test and I am horrified to see my mom, who is usually up beat and happy, going through so much. Yet, through all the pain, my mom tells me not to worry and to continue living for this moment and having fun. This influence has definitely impacted the individual that I am today, by reminding me that when it all start coming undone, not to forget to stay positive and have a good time. Not to mention, she has also, unknowingly, influenced me to spend more time at home, with the ones I love most.
When i think of who has impacted my life most or who has shped me as the person i am today i think of people. My friends and family have shaped me as an individual the most. I have learned so many things from both, some bad influces from family or friends and alot of good. My parents stick out the most when it comes down to it. My parents are always there for me when i need them.I dont always like their decisions, but i know its always for the best for me. They do everything they can for me and the rest of our family and put others before themselves. I can usually talk to my mom about more things and its just more easy going and comfortable. My dad is protective and a little harder to pass things by with, he always has the last say on things and how they will go. I love both my parents and resect them so much. I appreciate everthing they have done for me.They have taught me so many things, and lessons i need to know. My parents have definitly made me who i am today, and shaped my life since i was born. I know their expectations and their hopes for me in life. I am so greatful for my parents and what they have done for me in my life so far, they are so important to me; i dont know what i would do without them!
i think a lot of people have done certain things to make me the person i am today. But the one who has helped the most is my mother. She was always telling me this and that. i thought she was annoying sometimes, always telling me what to do or how to act in a certain situation. but i know now that it was all to help me have manors and be a nice person. Everything she said and still says has meaning. She taught me to let what people say slide, cause its not worth me getting mad. She also taught me that people who are mean to me or make rude comments are just not happy with themselves so they have to put other people down. I think i have listened to a lot of things she has said to me. I try not to flip out on someone over little things. I also use my manors a lot. i never burp, or talk while i eat, or put my elbows on the table. She doesn't just yell at me when i do something wrong, she helps me realize why what i did was wrong and what i could of done instead of that. She never tries to invade my personal life and doesn't question everything i do. I think thats why i am the way i am today.
internet was being too slow.
I think the person who has shaped me the most in my life would be my sisters and my mom. My mom has taught me about freedom and trust. We have a very trusting relationship and i know she has a lot of faith and trust in me and my decisions. She doesnt have a reason not to trust me and i wouldnt want to give her one. I really take into consideration what she would think/do when i mke decisions and i think its helped me a lot. Also, my sisters have shaped me. Throughout my life theyve shown me what not to do. Now, i know how to stay on good terms with my mom and also how to stay out of trouble. theyve also taught me new things about life and living. I woudnt be the person i am today without these influences in my life and im greatful to have both of them.
