Achievement of Desire
In his essay, Rodriguez tries to have it all. He is intent on becoming a scholar while still
doing what he wants to do in the family set-up. He wants to remain part of the family while
pursuing his dreams. The problem is that the young man cannot do both effectively. He finds that
his studies demand more and more of his time and he has less and less for his family. He cannot
have his cake and eat it too because his home is just too different from his school (Velasco 3).
Eventually, he has to make a choice, and he chooses the school.
Thesis statement: one has to sacrifice previous and personal connections for him or her to get to
his or her goals; to achieve his or her desire.
Outline
Introduction
Rodriguez argues that he loved his family life as much as he loved his schooling. His scholarship
was his ticket out of poverty, and he did not want to give it up. Therefore, he made a choice to
leave his old life behind knowing that he could always come back.

Nothing, absolutely nothing, can be achieved without sacrifice. One has to let go of the past and
march into the future. Sacrifice comes in various forms. One can sacrifice his or her time in
pursuit of a goal.
The main aim is to make sure that whatever one seeks to achieve is worth it. It is unwise to
sacrifice family time for a career which makes a person miserable. Every sacrifice must be worth
it in the end. That said, making the decision to let something go is never easy, and it requires
strength of character.
