What makes Winston Churchill a hero?

A hero must be able to stand strong on his own and not be afraid to overcome any troubles he face. He's job is to protect the people or the weak. He must be able to allow the world to be a better place and also contribute to the society. They must be able to bear the pain and not give up easily, one of the heroes is Winston churchill.Chuchills wartime speechmaking is of the highest quality in showing implaccabilty to what the Nazis stood for & what he was against.Winston Churchill was a remarkable man.

Winston was in the army for seven years. After the army Winston decided he wanted to get into politics. He gave speeches in front of thousands of people and said that he would not let his country down. At first they did not believe him because in his early years as a student he got straight F's. He wrote about ten books, one of of his most famous was called The Story of Malakand Field Force. He got very frustrated with society. One example of his frustration was when they would not let him have the political role that he wanted. In other words he was a determined man. He gave about over 50 speeches in four years. Most of his speeches were about Parliament or wars.

Winston Churchill was different from most people in his time. He did a lot of traveling to other countries just to talk to kings, queens and presidents. He had talked to Theodore Roosevelt, Dwight D. Eisenhower, Queen Elizibeth II and even King George the 6th. He wrote books about wars and risked his life just to write a book. He also served as Prime Minister. "We shall never surrender," said Sir Winston Churchill during World War II. Imagine thinking that you were going to be killed in a war because the enemy outnumbered you in everything including air power, firepower and even armies. The British had a good chance of loosing. It is a good thing that he said that because he lead them to victory. Winston Churchill had an unbreakable spirit. He once said "I have nothing to offer, but toil blood tears and sweat."

Challenges Of Winston Churchill

Winston has an innate distrust of groups and/or a cynical attitude toward society that may leave him feeling out of step and unable to participate in activities with his peers. Overcoming a sense of aloofness and alienation from others is an important task for Churchill, he tends to inhibit that side of his by being too self-conscious and concerned with the impression he is making.
It is in relationships that are more than superficial or casual - in particular in cases where Winston Churchill has merged emotionally, legally, or financially with another person - that he is most likely to wrestle with these issues he will see these issues arise in close partnerships of any kind, especially when there is a mutual dependency involved. Dealing with in-laws, inheritances, and legal matters involving joint custody, shared assets, and resources is also a part of this.
He is prone to overdo, especially during stressful periods, examples are:

Winston Churchill tends to over-rely on luck or grace, living for tomorrow and gambling. Winston is overconfident and tends to overextend himself and take on more than is humanly possible. Winston is often dogmatic about his philosophy of life or religious beliefs.
Winston Churchill should become more aware of the spiritual side of life and its underlying unity by getting involved in charitable activities and opening up his psychic channels.
Moreover, musical and artistic or imaginative endeavors will be important to him.
Winston Churchill thinks of others before he thinks of himself and is always ready to lend a helping hand. He is deeply concerned with the community which he lives in, loves his family and relatives and has a strong need to maintain close relationships with them.
