Help me please pleaseeeeeee

Could someone please help me out. All you have to do is write the following and take a picture of the righting and attach it. Please and thank you ❤(It needs to be hand written and on any paper)
I actually have been judged by the way I look plenty of times. I've had my fair shares of these experiences. People often have a tendency to observe a person once they meet someone new or in the event that they see a person in general and now and again people have a tendency to be inaccurate by these habits. It could also be as easy as your clothing, the manner you place your hands, the manner you speak etc. Although this stuff can inform lots approximately someone now and again it's just a character people tackle due to the fact all of us realize a person is judging them or they themselves are judging a person as well .
One of my experiences are with teachers after I was in sixth grade I had a bad mind-set after I became told to be quiet when I spoke up and I became criticized for that, I in no way did my work nor listened to my teachers they thought I became a lost cause till I met a person who noticed I had capability she helped me through the year until now she helped me show all my teachers wrong that I could actually do something in my life. All I wanted was a bit of help and she helped me even though I might not have the high-quality grades I usually strive for, especially with work and all and but she continues to be right here supporting me that is certainly considered one among my experiences.
In conclusion, no person should choose some other person due to the fact it is able to be a misjudgment or a easy mistake due to the fact now and again people have a small insignificant however it would not outline who they are everyone is unique so its higher to get to realize a person earlier than judging. Even in case you're judging a person as a minimum do not be negative and ensure your assumption is accurate.

What the answer to the question now

Why do the Shark Tank investors decline Mo’s deal? Support your answer with evidence from the text that is either directly stated or implied.

The Text:
By the time I was twelve, I was selling over $1,000 in bow ties annually. That’s when I got an email from the producers of Shark Tank, a show that gives entrepreneurs the chance to present their companies in front of a panel of investors. At first, my mom turned down the offer—she didn’t know what the show was. But when we started doing research and kept in contact with the producers, she agreed to let me fly to California to film. I decided to ask the investors for $50,000 for a fifteen-percent stake in my company. For months, I recited lines, practicing in front of a camera, my parents and occasionally my teddy bears. Despite my preparation, when the day finally came, I was terrified. Walking down the blue-lit hallway, I gripped my mom’s hand so tightly that five years later, she still jokes that I cut off her circulation. When the producers cued me to begin, my brain went empty and the words I had practiced fell away. After a deep breath, I somehow gathered myself and recited my pitch. But none of the sharks wanted to take the deal I’d offered. They told us we didn’t need their help, that we were growing at the right speed and should keep the company’s ownership for ourselves. One investor, Kevin, offered to contribute to my business if I gave him three dollars for every tie I sold for the life of the company, but all of the other sharks told me not to take the deal. I declined, leaving the stage with no deal, but with the promise of a mentorship from another investor, Daymond John. As I walked backstage, my eyes filled with tears and I started sobbing. My goal for months had been to leave with a deal, and I had failed. The moment when I messed up my pitch replayed in my head. But as time passed, I realized that the sharks had actually given me a gift.

Which detail best shapes the idea that people become dishonest when communicating with others?
excerpt from Friendship
by Ralph Waldo Emerson
There are two elements that go to the composition of friendship, each so sovereign, that I can detect no superiority in either, no reason why
either should be first named. One is Truth. A friend is a person with whom I may be sincere. Before him, I may think aloud. I am arrived at last in
the presence of a man so real and equal that I may drop even those undermost garments of dissimulation, courtesy, and second thought, which
men never put off, and may deal with him with the simplicity and wholeness, with which one chemical atom meets another. Sincerity is the
luxury allowed, but diadems and authority, only to the highest rank, that being permitted to speak truth as having none above it to court or
conform unto. Every man alone is sincere. At the entrance of a second person, hypocrisy begins. We parry and fend the approach of our fellow-
man by compliments, by gossip, by amusements, by affairs. We cover up our thought from him under a hundred folds. I knew man who, under
a certain religious frenzy, cast off this drapery, and omitting all compliments and commonplace, spoke to the conscience of every person he
encountered, and that with great insight and beauty.
