Rise and Shine Ms. Lady!
It’s a common misconception that attending college will give you all the desire of your heart. Truth is that college alone will not bring you the desires of your heart. Sorry to bust your dream bubble, but I want you prepared for your rise2power. If you discover college is the best path to progression and prosperity go in with a plan. Going to college cannot be the plan, you must have a plan to graduate from college. Young adults don’t usually do this and go back home before the 2nd semester ends. What you chose to do while you’re in college will actually open more doors than your glorious piece of paper. Extracurricular activities related to your interest will serve as a valuable resource as your life progresses. When I was in college I thought it was enough just to go to class. Umm No! You must go to class on time, participate, ask questions after class, build a relationship with your instructor and study. All that for 1 class you ask. The answer is yes. You will encounter many sleepless nights because term papers and tests. This is why you must make a conscience decision to prosper and finish no matter what. You will want to quit and be like all the other lazy people: Stop, breath and visualize your life with college and visualize your life without college. I’m sure whatever vision you see will effect your choice.

I love to see a young girl go out and grab the world by the lapels. Life’s a bitch. You’ve got to go out and kick ass.
