Along with the academic rigor, I've been taught the importance of making the choices that will will result in my attainment of my personal desires. There were times when I didn't want to work hard. I was allowed a semester to slack off. My couselour worked with me toward the end of this period. He pointed out that in life I can always choose to let life slip by, just like I'd done that semester, and that when I live that way, I will know that I'm getr, ing screwed by life instead of taking it by the horns. I reflected on how it felt And he was right. To get what I want , I need to live as if I am that person... Then I will be that person.
