To The Incoming College Freshman Reading This,
Congratulations on graduating high school, it's an extremely amazing feeling but at the same time, it's still upsetting knowing you're probably never going to see the majority of your grade ever again or seeing that favorite teacher you had in high school every day.
However, welcome to college! Freedom, independence, a clean new slate, and finding out who you really are. College is so great, you're going to realize so many things about yourself you have never realized before, and you're going to meet some of your best friends in a matter of nine months. It's going to take time, but I promise they are there!! College is hard, and it takes a lot of adjusting, but I promise you, you will get through it! All in all, I gathered 10 incredible quotes for you to take into consideration before your freshman year and to even think about during the school year!
1. Mark Twain
"Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover."
2. Steve Jobs
"Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life. Don't be trapped by dogma - which is living with the results of other people's thinking. Don't let the noise of other's opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary."
3. Winston Churchill
“Success consists of going from failure to failure without loss of enthusiasm.”
4. Dr. Wayne Dyer
“If you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change.”
5. Walt Disney
“All our dreams can come true if we have the courage to pursue them.”
6. Alexander Graham Bell
“When one door closes, another opens; but we often look so long and so regretfully upon the closed door that we do not see the one which has opened for us.”
7. Unknown
"The secret of success: Stop wishing. Start doing."
8. Nora Roberts
“If you don’t go after what you want, you’ll never have it. If you don’t ask, the answer is always no. If you don’t step forward, you’re always in the same place.”
9. Oprah Winfrey
“Don't worry about becoming successful but work toward being significant and the success will naturally follow.”
10. Christian D. Larson
"Believe in yourself and all that you are. Know that there is something inside you greater than any obstacle."Congratulations and Good Luck on the next chapter of your life!
