text: I hope the reader of this will belive the same way after reading what I just typed.       The student body election was being held next week, and Generic_Name was anxious. She couldn't decide if she wanted to run or not, because she thought she wouldn't be good enough. She asked her friends, her parents, and even her older sister who was the vice president a few years back. They all gave her the same answer, and that answer was yes. The week of the election, Generic_Name raised her hand to be a candidate. Another girl name Generic_Name raised her hand as well. Anxiety swelled inside her. Generic_Name had better grades, was more athletic, and was in all honors classes. What if she wasn't chosen? After an agonizing two weeks, the results came. Generic_Name had been elected to be the student body president! Just like Generic_Name, people hold themselves back from such great opportunities. People tend to self doubt, have no confidence in their selves, and argue continually whether they should do it or not until it's too late. Seeking the advice of others will help people make the right choices, receive advice from people with more experience, and have no self doubt.
