A very special man was born to two immigrant parents having no idea what he would become. I think Colin Powell’s choices directly affected his achievements and recognition in his life. Many people would not agree with this statement, but I will use facts and prove to you that this is correct. He was an accomplished military man and In his private life, but I will be focusing on the military career in this article.
People will state that Colin Powell’s choices did not affect the outcome of his life which is completely ignorant and non fact based. They believe that he was just lucky and that's the explanation, which is very wrong. A huge example of this is all of his success which people define him by also his major achievements, like a huge one becoming a four star general would have never happened without his choice to join the military.…show more content… Also four star general as well as secretary of state. But his most defining moment came in the form of an accident, he was flying in a helicopter when it crashed leaving him injured, he then went back to the helicopter to save his fellow soldiers. He received the purple heart for been wounded in service. He also received the soldier's medal for the helicopter rescue.
In conclusion, Colin Powell’s choices directly affected his life outcome and achievements. Without the decisions he made for himself, some of his defining achievements would not have occurred. Also, he had one of the most impressive military careers ever as a result of his choices which defined him as a person. As a result of these choices Powell was a exceptional military leader who will be remembered in history
