My story is very contrasty from Joseph’s because he really knew what all the stages meant. My hero's journey consists of my threshold crossing which was when I started depending on myself more than I did on others, my helpers/mentors like my parents, teachers,my sister and many more influential people in my life and my rewards were getting awards in school, having a nice family, and many friends.

It doesn't get simpler. It won't get simpler. It's been 12 years since he passed yet despite everything it hurts as it did the second I discovered. I wish I could do a reversal so as to that morning. I woke up and discovered him at the table, written work. God, that is whatever he did. He composed and composed and composed. I would read his works for whatever is left of my life just to feel somewhat nearer to him once more. I attempted to induce him to return to bed, however he cannot. He guaranteed me he would be back soon. He assembled it a conference. Why wouldn't he be able to be straightforward with me? Alex never preferred duels. He preferred not to get included in any. Why did he get included in this one? I detest Burr. He ought to have known Alexander could never shoot him. He ought to have known not to do it. He ought to have realized that the world was sufficiently wide for them two. Why didn't he realize that?

The Hero’s Journey is a basic template utilized by writers everywhere. Joseph Campbell, an American scholar, analyzed an abundance of myths and literature and decided that almost all of them followed a template that has around twelve steps. He would call these steps the Hero’s Journey. The steps to the Hero’s Journey are a hero is born into ordinary circumstances, call to adventure/action, refusal of call, a push to go on the journey, aid by mentor, a crossing of the threshold, the hero is tested, defeat of a villain, possible prize, hero goes home.

“There’s nothing for you behind you. All that exists is what’s ahead.” Secretariat said this on the TV show Bojack Horseman, and, although it was just a cartoon, this quote had a profound impact on me. It was the motto I lived by in high school. I even wrote it on the wall of my bedroom. Throughout my years in high school, I clung to that quotation, held it and wouldn’t let go. One of the most important things I’ve ever learned is to just keep moving and focus on what’s ahead.
