Who Are You?
Start writing a post

Who are you? What do you stand for? I'm writing this article for the dreamers, for the ones who want to be something in life, you can do it! As a dreamer myself I think to myself doubt, and I want some type of motivation to drive me, but I have to realize that I am the motivation. It's up to me to do the things I want to do in life. I have to get up and do the things I want to do, and not rely on someone to make or influence me to do so. In life doors will open, but it is entirely up to you if you want to go through them.

I was in class the other day and this guy by the name of Brian McIntosh aka B-mac came into the room to talk to the class about how he's been in the outside world. Now previously I had heard from b-mac from a former teacher of mine. I heard this guy had received a job at ESPN, I couldn't believe it, but once I heard b-mac's backstory it all made sense. He was a normal guy like me, but what separates him from the rest of the pack, is his determination and his drive. Anybody can be successful, but you must be ready to grind and do what you need to do. This guy changed majors his senior year, worked part time and to top it off took extra classes at UNC. B-mac had an unwilling drive to go after what he wanted, nothing could stand in his way.

You have to breathe success in order to be successful, I learned that a long time ago. Only you know how much you want something, if you want something really bad, go for it. Never have barriers or boundaries as to what you can do and what you are capable of. You can do anything you put your mind too. Be the best you can be...

Who Are You? You are amazing! You are ready! Be great!

Holding on to your dream and staying focused is very important....I know I said it once but I will say it again....

Want success as badly as you want to breathe....and not even failure will make you want to quit.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
