Read the following David Brooks’s article (see link below). Then, compose a 500-word (minimum) persuasive response that provides and supports your opinion about Brooks’s claim below. Also, provide your opinion about the author’s contention that “doing your job well often means suppressing yourself.”
The essay must include a minimum of five, well-developed paragraphs: an introductory paragraph that includes the thesis, three supporting paragraphs (minimum), and a concluding paragraph. Paragraph divisions provide transition, clarity, and organization to an essay. All other sources, except for the assigned article, must be online and no more than five years old unless the additional sources are also provided by the instructor. Ask the instructor about exceptions.
Brooks’s Claim:
Most successful young people don’t look inside and then plan a life. They look outside and find a problem, which summons their life. A relative suffers from Alzheimer’s and a young woman feels called to help cure that disease. A young man works under a miserable boss and must develop management skills so his department can function. Another young woman finds herself confronted by an opportunity she never thought of in a job category she never imagined. This wasn’t in her plans, but this is where she can make her contribution.
Most people don’t form a self and then lead a life. They are called by a problem, and the self is constructed gradually by their calling.
