This post is untitled. It's untitled because I don't really know what to call it. Many of the posts I do on here are usually videos or pictures but minus 'The Word of the Day' posts that I do, I rarely write on here. I wanted to talk about perseverance and how important it is to never give up on what you dream on doing. The sky is the limit. I'm not trying to sell you some kind of "EMPOWER YOUR LIFE" type message; just being real. This time last year I had no idea of what I was capable of. I knew nothing, was naive, and was more excited about starting college for the first time to be thinking ahead in terms of a year from then. All I wanted was to taste freedom and get as far away from my house as humanly possible. I had no idea of the connects I would make, the people I would meet, and the important life lessons that I learned through experience. The amount of motivation and drive you have plays a big part in the success and fail of what you set out to do. Some things I never thought I would be ready for I now found myself a master of, while other things I'm still gonna have to work on. People that were with me in the beginning are no longer there, but were replaced with folks that were better than their predecessors. If you've read this far, it may sound like I'm a senior about to graduate from college; but I'm only a rising sophomore. THIS is my proof of me becoming a polished diamond once my time here at Georgia State is up: within a year's time, I've learned more things about myself than I could ever to have hoped to imagine. I can see that 3 more years of life changing experiences will shape me for the REAL real world; called "Life After College."
