Some people believe that it is best to accept a bad situation, such as an unsatisfactory job or shortage of money. Others argue that it is better to try and improve such situations. Discuss both views and give your opinion

#people #situation #job #shortage #money #situations
People may argue that, it is more convenient to not reject an unpleasant situation, like a lack of money. Some people think that it is best to attempt to change these things for the better in life.
This
 essay will discuss these two beliefs,
then
 I will state what I believe about these arguments.
Firstly
, accepting and being happy with what you receive is much easier to do and live with,
then
 by trying to improve something that may or may not change.
Although
 it is always better to try your hardest to get the best outcome in a position it is not always achievable. As in some circumstances you cannot change your life as it requires a lot of work and dedication that many people can't do especially older people.
For example
, people can hardly gain a high income without a high paying job and they cannot quit their jobs to find another one as easily. In
this
 situation, it's better to allow and be grateful for
this
 lifestyle
instead
 of changing it and maybe risking something. Despite
this
, it never hurt to try to improve,
then
 accepting anything you did.
On the other hand
, some people disagree, as they believe it is much more effective to work and improve the current position to achieve more.
In addition
, it is much more comfortable to be happy with whatever problem you got.
However
, that it not a way to live. Due to that, people must always try to improve constantly to receive their wanted job or deserving income.
For instance
, individuals should leave their work if they are unsatisfied with it to achieve what they truly want. In my opinion, I believe that people need to at least try to make their position as best as possible.
however
Suggestion
However
, if they tried everything they should be happy and accept with what they accomplished so far. In conclusion, some people may be unable to improve and their unpleasant situation.
however
Suggestion
However
, you should never accept anything you are not born to do and you should always try to achieve the best you can.

Support ideas with relevant, specific examples

Examples make your writing easier to understand by illustrating points more effectively.

Examples, if used properly, not only help you get higher marks for ‘Task Response’ but also for ‘Coherence’.

When giving examples it is best to put them after your main idea or topic sentence. They can be used in the middle of supporting sentences or they can be used to start a new sentence. There is no rule for where exactly to give examples in essays, logically they would come after your main idea/topic sentence or just after a supporting sentence.

Linking words for giving examples:

  • for example
  • for instance
  • to illustrate this
  • to give a clear example
  • such as
  • namely
  • to illustrate
  • take, for example
