It is so amazing how much your life can change in just a few days, few months, or even a few years. It seems as just yesterday we were all still in diapers, now majority of us are just starting college, half-way through college or about to graduate college. When I got to college, I did not know my life would change so quickly. I went from depending on my parents to wake me up every morning for school, fixing hot, home-cooked meals, or helping me clean my room to barely making it to my morning classes, eating frozen dinners, ramen, or cheap fast food, and my room a constant disaster. I went from having a plan for my life and set goals to conquer to being undecided about what my next step in life will be or what I really want to do for the rest of my life. I realized everything I work so hard for can go down the drain within the snap of a finger and your life will change forever. One thing, I did not plan on it happening to me. I was so lost; but I received the best advice ever when it did.

You cannot let one little thing hinder you from being successful or achieving your life-long dream. You have to stay focused and keep moving forward no matter what happens because, it's life, deal with it. Every obstacle that comes your way should not stop you from reaching the top. One thing you need to realize, it has to get harder before it can get better. You have to fail in order to succeed. You have to work hard to see results. You have to study in order to pass a test. You have to work to make money. You may have to go broke before all of your bills are made. Sometimes, you might just have to shed a tear for things to get better.

But always remember, this is a part of life, so deal with it.
