So I have started my last semester of school last week. It
is hard to believe six years of college have gone by so quickly. At points it
seems like I never imagine being so close to having my masters, however on the
other hand is the realization that I am not going to have to be a real grown
up.
That seems such an odd thing for me. For such a long time I felt
as if I had always been a grown up, and in some ways I was. I was force to grow
up faster than some kids. However what I lack from circumstances, I made up for
with drive to get to the next level.
Never let where you start determine where you can go. If I did
I would have given up before I started. Life is not about the easy points but
by the times of struggle, the times you really dig deep and go father. I am not
a perfect person and I have so many more challenges to go.
Are there times I want to give up? Of course, if any one
tries to tell you their aren’t times that it seems impossible to keep going, I
don’t know if they are someone I would take advice from. Why I say that you can’t
reach your highest highs, until you reach some lows.
I was on a conference call the other day and I heard
something I keep trying to remember during the most stressful times. Like right
now when I am trying to figure out how to get all my papers done, eek. Anyways
I really enjoyed it and hope you will too.
All successful people have four things in common:
1) They
Take Risk, they don’t do what is safe
2) They are different, there is
something about them that isn’t like everyone else
3) They are reserves of ridicule
4) They don’t work 9-5 jobs
I will have
some great blogs to come soon I promise…Upcoming events: Miss Finger Lakes
