Question

I'm writing a essay that is 4 paragraph long and the topic is "something that has change in my life" I really dont know how to start can someone give me some ideas?

I would like to right about my attitude

Answer 1

a) Make a list of 2 things that have changed in your life.

b) Create an outline with leaving space between each number. Label the paragraphs 1) opening paragraph 2) 2nd paragraph 2) 3rd paragraph 4) closing paragraph.
c) Then begin with an opening paragraph briefly stating how the two things changed your life.
d) write one paragraph explaining how the 1st thing changed your life.
e) Write another paragraph explaining how the 2nd thing changed your life.
f) Closing paragaph recapping how the 2 things changed your life.
g) Reread, edit and rewrite the paragraph.

Another option is that you could write about one thing. In the 2nd paragraph you could talk about how you were before the incident and in the 3rd explain how the incident changed your life.

Answer 2

Do you have an idea of whta the change is in your life? for example if it's becoming a teen ( I have no idea how old you are), then you could say:

Life for me was ordinary. I went about my days not really doing anything but watching cartoons, trading pokemon cards, and searching for the prize at the bottom of the cereal box. But then it happened. I became a teenager and life as I knew it took on a diffrent meaning.....From that point you can add in what changed, why it changed and the way you feel about it. You use as a conclusion for you fourth and last paragraph, the things you miss since you've aged or the things you look foreward to when you enter your next phase in life.

Hope this helped. If you have any more questions about how to word it , just send me a message.

Answer 3

There are a few often heard cliches regarding the effects of positive or negative attitude in ones life. The most commonly heard of these is "attitude is everything." ......That should get you started.

If attitude IS everything for you, stay focused on that thesis and be sure to have each paragraph start with a topic sentence. Each paragraph (and its topic) should support your thesis. In this way, you can support your thesis with plenty of facts, examples, and details.

Do NOT personalize! No me, I , you, he, she. Make sure your conclusion is strong and really does summarize what you have written. Don't go off on a new tangent in the conclusion, because then it's not a conclusion.

Above all else, proofread. Read it aloud to someone else. Read with feeling and see how it sounds.

Answer 4

I can never think of anything either.. and what I have learned is to not look at the big picture right away. Look at small bits of your life and try to put something that means a lot together. Think of a person, place, or thing. Create a mind map if it makes it easier! It's best to do something you can talk about for quite a long time if it's an essay!

Answer 5

The essay is designed to encourage you to think of something or someone that has made an impact on your life. How would your life be if that something or someone hadn't come around. Specifically what was it that changed in your life.

As soon as you think of something elaborate on it. Don't worry about grammar or anything and jot down things in the margin that pop up into your head that you can use later in your essay. Then proof read the paper eliminating all of the nonsense making notes.

Answer 6

attitude? hmm... first of all. let's discuss the essay title: 'something that has changed your life'. you can start by writing about something you witnessed yourself on the news or a situation you found yourselves in which changed your life completely and perhaps made you look at life from a completely new perspective. such as for example did you help someone get out of trouble, gave good advice to a friend of yours who needed someone to talk to, were you in an accident and ended up in hospital? alas did the incident and lying on a bed led to you re-evaluating your life and realise not just what it means to you but you have set yourself long-term targets to work towards?

as for 'attitude', write what links the idea of attitude with that one ''thing'' that changed your life and how it relates to what you've experienced in your life so far.

hope this helps with your write-up of the essay!

Answer 7

paragragh 2 is what the change is

Answer 8

well, when you start the essay, you should start it out by saying, "something that has changed my life, would be..." and then at the end of the essay you should put, "and in conclusion, thats the reason that it had changed my life" those are some really great tips that i learned when i was in high school from my speach teacher.

Answer 10

Start with a catchy opening sentence or two about the issue you are writing about. Explain where you've been, where you are now and how you got there. Finish strongly with one or two sentences that summarizes what you wrote, concludes about what you have learned, and suggest the direction you will take in the future.
