Lately, I think ive mistakenly been hit with the common college disease of "uncertainty". A lot of the people I come into contact with at USC possess a sense of not knowing what they really want, how they want to get "it", or where they want to be in their life. Before coming to college, I had my mind made up on what I was going to do, and how I was going to get where I wanted to be, but sometimes, after being influenced by and listening to fellow Trojans who in a way seem content with not having a plan, I find myself questioning my own plans, and doubting my success as I have had it mapped out for years.
Today, I slept through my six o'clock class (fell asleep at 5 and woke up at 9) and had a dream, that I will not go into detail with, that changed my outlook on why I am in college! Yea, I felt extremely bad about missing my economics class, but I felt a feeling of renewal and determination come about me as a stream on hardened clay. I HAVE GOALS AND ASPIRATIONS. I KNOW WHAT I WANT TO DO. I AM GOING TO DO IT. NO ONE OR NOTHING WILL GET IN MY WAY, NOT EVEN MYSELF. I HAVE A PLAN, AND I AM GOING TO STICK TO IT. I WILL SUCCEED.
Whew, I think Uncle Barack and the whole inauguration ordeal has gotten to me.. . feeling all inspired and ready to do great things. A few days ago, I heard the saying that my mother and brother have told me many times before, but i think it came at a perfect time for me to hear: If you fail to plan, you plan to fail. So, fellows and acquaintances, I hope you take what I have said into consideration and stay strong with what you have planned for yourselves, and not falter from achieving your goals. What you want is yours if you plan accordingly and stay faithful.
YOU are the one who grabs the fruit when YOU are hungry.
- God just sent me that....
