Can You Write an Essay About Yourself?

Can You Write an Essay About Yourself?The truth is, you can't write an essay about yourself. You're a nobody. You might as well write the well-known stories about other people and have them read it to you in a movie theatre or in a language that you know, but you can't write your own essay.Okay, well maybe you can do it to some extent but then you have to take what you wrote and make it into a story and then write your way through those characters, from beginning to end, until you've written a screenplay. That's an excellent story. You know, I love when I see kids at birthday parties who can't write a sentence by themselves. They look at me and they say 'yeah, you're right.'But why not? They're clearly talented and bright, but they've never actually been given any instructions or lessons in how to learn how to write their own essays. They don't know what to do.What's your excuse? You know, you're probably one of those people who can't write a good story but who has a great memory and can tell a joke and can recite some numbers. You might not have a story you can write down but you're doing a pretty good job when it comes to memorizing things.When you try to follow instructions for your essay, you can't remember the first thing you wrote down. At best, you just remember bits and pieces of what you said in the essay. But you're trying to write an essay about yourself, aren't you?You can't write your own essay because you haven't been taught how to do it. You haven't had any lessons or instructions on how to go about doing it.You are what you write. If you write about other people, that's nice, but they're not you. So you really can't write an essay about yourself.Sure, you could sit there and memorize a paragraph of what they said and then try to tell it, but they wouldn't be telling you the story if you didn't know the material. You're doing the same thing in your own essay.
