I'm thankful I have to work for what I want/need in life. . . . even though its so very hard to balance my life with so many things to do.
I have no money.
Thus I need to pick up a second job.
One of my classmates gleefully admitted that she lives by the idea: "'C's get degrees". . . I can't imagine what that must be like. Probably a whole lot less stressful. 'C's may get degrees but they sure won't get me into medical school or PT school or grad school or wherever I'll end up going.
So I work
and I work
and I work
I study hard, I put forth great effort to support myself and pay my own bills. . . .
I'm grateful for having this work ethic because laziness is not an attribute I hope to be correlated with.
I wrote on my mirror this note:
"whatever it is, you can do it and you will do it well"
And thus every morning I commit myself to excellence no matter how difficult the task may be.
It'll all pay off in the end in some form or other whether it be a fulfilling career or obtaining knowledge about myself and academic subjects. I do it for the benefit of myself and those in whom I may come in contact with. I know I'll be able to contribute to society much more effectively with an educated mind and excellent work ethic. Thus, no matter what happens, I do not regret my choices.
Besides, if I was just given everything I ever wanted or needed and wasn't expected to put forth any effort in living, life would be incredibly dull and I would be spoiled rotten with a personality equivalent to that of a boiled egg. . . perhaps even make that rotten too. Yes, definitely a rotten, boiled egg. . .
