Describe the things you do that brings you the greatest satisfaction.

I feel that the things that bring me satisfaction are things I do to feel happy and a sense of achievement. To me, satisfaction is when I manage to do some difficult exercise like "muscle ups" and "piston squats" when I can run as fast as the speed of light and I manage to complete a tough Cross Fit workout. Sometimes I also feel good to be respected and looked up to. Satisfaction is something that cannot be seen or heard; it can never be bought with money or stolen from somebody. It can only be felt when you work hard and put in extra effort to see improvement in your results. In this essay, I will talk about things I do to achieve the greatest sense of satisfaction.

There are some things I do in life that help me to feel satisfied;one of them is exercising. Being able to complete a 12-km run within a timing of 55 minutes is already a sense of satisfaction. It gives me hope and motivates me to improve my physical and mental endurance. Satisfaction is the engine that drives me forward because tasting the sense of accomplishment is like a form of addiction I simply cannot stop feeling satisfied when I look into the mirror and stare at myself. The change in me makes me feel good. Changes like having more define muscles shape or I become better in doing physical activities are improvement. When I see changes in me, I feel satisfied. Hence exercise is one of the things I do that has brought me the great sense of satisfaction.

Secondly,education is also another platform that brings me the sense of satisfaction. Although I dislike studying, achievement is one of the reason that made me have a love-hate feelings towards studies. In school, I would usually try to be first in class or at least top 5 in class. Sometimes it`s a challenge for me to ace the latest class test as I would not have energy to continue studying after a long day in school and after I complete my daily workout routine. However I am a fighter and I would not easily give in to sleep. I will burn the midnight oil because I think its worth persevering when I top the class for test. Being top I class is not easy therefore it is a sense of achievement when I am top in class. Which brings me a sense of satisfaction. Education is hence one of the things that brings me satisfaction.

Lastly, having good relationship also brings me a great sense of satisfaction. Being able to work with my teammates or peers around me brings me a sense of satisfaction. Miscommunication is common in today`s society. One of the main reasons that caused miscommunication is the wrong usage of tones. 
Therefore, I often quarrel with my peers because of this. It is not easy to have a smooth communication with somebody moreover there are too many peers in life to take note of. Therefore, I feel satisfied when I am able to run camps smoothly or present a good project in front  of the class with my group members. Therefore I feel satisfied when I manage to cross the barrier of miscommunication, because once I am able to overcome this problem, things will be done easier and with better communication, relationship among people will improve. Hence, this is a sense of satisfaction.

In conclusion, satisfaction is about being able to accomplish something, those are the 3 things that often bring me a sense of satisfaction as I often learn new things from it. Being encouraged and looked up to also gives me a sense of satisfaction.
