Learning Activity 1
Evidence: Modeling Excellence

“We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act, but a habit.” Aristotle. For this
evidence, go online and find information about the daily routine of at least three people you
consider role models. You should compare their routines and find the things they have in
common. Then, you should write a three-paragraph composition about their
commonalities and the way your routine resembles or will resemble theirs. Make sure you use
the conjunctions (so, either, neither, too) you learned in this learning activity.
The structure of the composition is as follows: Paragraph 1: A short description about why you
decided to choose those people and a short description about who they are. For this work, I
have decided to talk about three characters, whose academic training is impressive, they
have different professions, which although they do not have similarities, they combine them in
a masterful way. - Bruce Dickinson is a British singer, music producer, fencer, executive, writer,
historian and pilot. - Vladimir Putin is a politician, lawyer and former KGB agent. He is the
current president of the Russian Federation. - Stephen Hawking was a British theoretical
physicist, astrophysicist, cosmologist and science popularizer Paragraph 2: The similarities you
found in their routines. The three people that I have decided to choose for this job, have
within their routines the similarity of having been trained in different professions, they have
been able to mix them to get the best out of them, although they have focused on a specific
topic, Bruce as a singer, Vladimir as politician and Stephen as scientist. Vladimir and Bruce are
passionate about history and so does Stephen. These three people stand out for their great
popularity in the field they have chosen as a representative profession, without disregarding
that they are or were, in Stephen's case, very good in all the fields they studied. Vladimir plays
various sports, Bruce does too. Paragraph 3: The way your routine reflects or will reflect their
routines. Why do I reflect my routines in these three characters? I have various professions
that have nothing in common, I am an electrician, a nurse, a paramedic, a management
systems auditor, a marketing technologist and a firefighter; Many people have told me that
these professions have nothing in common, but I have been able to mix them in order to be a
comprehensive professional in risk management and emergency care. I reflect myself in the
characters I choose, because like them I try to be the best in what Idol, even though I mix
different specialties.
