"Try to look at your weaknesses, and convert it into strength, that's success." This quote paired with the picture means a lot me to me right now. As this is my senior year, I have been anticipating the year for a long while, and while I am excited that its finally here, I am very nervous and a little afraid even. Thinking about your future takes a lot of courage because it can be a scary thing to think about, but you have to prepare for it. The iceberg of success is a great depiction of how people truly think of success. They see people like Oprah and Bill Gates and other influential people in the world, and they see how wealthy they are, but they don't see or think about all the hard work and sacrificing that it took for them to get there. If it was easy anyone could do it, but its not easy so that means that you have to be different from anyone else, you have to go the extra mile and make it look easy because thats how much you are motivated and how much you want to succeed. Right now I am fighting the exhaustion that is inside of me. There are days when I "have nothing to do", but then I remember that there is always some work to be done, somewhere, and while everyone else is restinf and partying,I am putting in the work to make my work standout amongst everyone else's.
