As we move through life every decision we make can totally change who we become. In life I strive to be the best I can, life is too short to be wandering around with out any intentions or goals in life. The life you dreamed of is attainable as long as you are willing to work for them. Here are 3 quick steps to living an epic life!

1. Get Organized!

Organization is key to having a productive life. It should be in every area of your life. It is really easy to have a clean room, but miss every appointment you have scheduled. Learn what works best for you and organize to fit how you operate. Many times people will organize how they have seen other places, but that is not necessarily the best for you. That also goes for planners just something that will keep you on top of your daily errands and task. Once you find what works for you make sure you stay consistent. Consistency is key, it will make organization a habit, which in turn will make it a life style.

2. Be Willing to Try New Things!

This one sounds pretty basic. However it is much needed. When you try new things it is a way to truly stretch yourself . The best part is you learn more about yourself. I personally tried a new genre of music on pandora and absolutely fell in love. I thought I was pretty set in my ways but I was opened to another side of myself through this music. It was no longer about the beat or rythm but mostly about the lyrics. I felt like I was able to experience music differently and get back to the root of what it is all about. However your experience may be different but is the experince where you grow. Being epic you take risk, even though trying a new genre of music, different type of food, or traveling somewhere new it is was about the experince. Each experience gives you more confidence to try something else down the road.

3. Get Quality Sleep

This one I can not stress enough! You can not be great if you are tired. Sleep is so vital to your success. It is literally what keeps us going. Sleep is so important as it gives you the energy needed to function. Each person is different on exactly how much sleep is perfect for them, but it is usually suggested to get around 8 hours of sleep. Now that sounds like a lot but if you go to sleep at 11pm and wake up at 7 am that is totally doable. However I realize life happens and for whatever getting 8 hours a night is a stretch. If that is you just strive for a consistent amount of sleep every night. If you are short on sleep maybe even try to schedule a nap in your day to keep your body and your mind healthy.

All in all living an epic life means finding yourself. Whatever you do just remember these three steps and you will be able to achieve all of your goals.

I've known you your entire life. More than likely I held you in the first three days of it and at least one of us cried. Cousins are truly one of the best things in the world and while sometimes I complain about how many people crowd Grandma's living room on Christmas Eve, I wouldn't trade you all anything.

You are my best friends, the only people who can understand what it's like on Thanksgiving, and you are the spunkiest people I have ever met. But you as so so young, most of you are just now starting your adventures in the public education system. I mean, I'm so very young too. I'm not married, I don't have children, heck, I just started my adult life, but I do want to give you what little advice I have. My dears, these are the things I want you to know.

Whether this has been the worst or best four years of your life, appreciate it. You will never have these times back, you will never be in high school again. It is hard for someone still in high school to wrap their brain around, but there will be a day when you wish you could be in the shoes you're in right now. Here are 15 things I have learned being in college that I wish I knew as a high school senior:

Trust me, once you start "One Tree Hill", you will be hooked. There's way too many reasons to list as to why you'll love this show, and these are just a few.

The first two weeks of classes have come to an end and they have been anything BUT easy. It seems like life has been serving up more bad than good and in all honesty, the only thing you want to do is crawl under your covers and hide from the rest of the world.

Although this seems like the best solution, it is also the easy way out. Take it from the girl who took basically a whole week off from her life because she just could not handle everything that was being thrown at her. This caused her to feel extremely lonely and even more stressed out for being behind in classes that JUST began.
