Become an optimist

Hello readers upon the request of some readers I will write another inspirational. I mean I can chug out a bit more inspiration.

So the thing we all are inspired by the most is happiness. It is the goal of our motivations. Motivations which include intimacy, achievement, and power, I mean who isn't motivated by these things? By the way I didn't come up with these on my own my psychology book told me about them. Anyways so we are all trying for happiness in one form or another. And unless your completely miserable then you have a source of happiness, what is your main source? Are you happy with where you are right now, or who your hanging with right now, or what you are doing right now, or even what your thinking right now (meaning are you happy with your idea's, imagination, and creativity). Find which of these you are happy with and stick with it either stay where you are comfortable, hang out more with the people you like to hang out with, or stay attentive in order to keep your thoughts flowing through you.

One could be happy with all these things and one probably is because throughout ones life if what one keeps striving for is their happiness (which by the way should not be called selfish with such negative connotation because every person should value themselves as much as they value others) then they have probably achieved it. Because we are high functioning human beings that are all hardwired to achieve and be successful in whatever we need to be successful in. So your are probably happy right now and don't even realize it because it is buried deep down. Anyways I hope everyone finds what their source of happiness is (and remember it is not always what one thinks it is) and that one holds onto that happiness.

Thank you for reading all the way if you did. Good job. So this is my second inspirational based on what people like. And hopefully in the future I will be able to complete my goal of writing a fictional novel in parts or snippets on here, because I think like me most writers want to have a novel with living breathing characters with memorable thoughts and actions.

And remember be happy like the hippie's. Peace out.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week. For some students, it's their first time in the library all semester, maybe ever. Others have slaved away many nights under the fluorescent lights, and are slightly annoyed to find their study space being invaded by amateurs. While these newbies wander aimlessly around the first floor, hopelessly trying to find a table, the OGs of the library are already on the third floor long tables deep into their studies. Here is a few signs that you may live in the library, whether you'd like to admit it or not.
