“I think your essay needs to be a personal reflection of the person you are now, it could be how you came to be (which may include a “sob” story), an event that changed your life (but it must be VERY unique to you and your circumstances) and how you feel your will benefit most from attending X university.”

This was the approach I took and I had great success.
