​Expository Essay

The quote,**"** With one success a thousand failures lie forgotten, but with one refusal to try, a thousand successes may prematurely die," has a very broad meaning. I think it means that if you succeed, you will go far but if you refuse to try, you won't succeed at all.I think this because if you don't try,as a result,you won't have any success in your life.​Also, success means that all your failures lead up to your big success;in contrast, if you don't try all of your other successes won't be there anymore because of that one refusal.This one quote can relate to myself as a person and in society.

My dance skills would decrease instead of increase.As you can see, by not trying at all, there will be a terrible result.

If you look at the big picture, giving up might seem to be the right way to go,but if you look at the big picture,you will always succeed if you always try.This quote by an unknown author means a lot. "One refusal to try, a thousand successes may premeaturely die,"has many meanings to other people,but to me it means that you will not have a lot of successes if you don't try.
