The Power of Believing in Your Greatness

As Bob Proctor once said, "If you can see it in your mind, you can hold it in your hand."

It all begins with one thought: a clear understanding of the personal power we have in writing your own stories and in turning the unthinkable into our daily realities.

Oftentimes we get so caught up with the idea of instant gratification that we forget about the value that exists in the journey towards the life of our dreams. A journey which not only fuels personal growth (as every experience allows us to learn more about who are as individuals), but also inches us closer to our ultimate goals and aspirations. We also tend to forget about how powerful we are and the incredible things we can accomplish by believing in our potential.

I have discovered though, that life tends to present us with unforeseen experiences ("challenges" as some may say) that will push us beyond our comfort zone and will truly test our determination to achieving something great. Something that will pave the way for others. Something that is way bigger than you or me. Something that will leave a legacy.

How can you remain motivated through these challenges you may ask? Remember that every challenge is temporary, and your current adversities are only preparing you for the endless success that is heading your way. Envisioning your success before it is even tangible and having faith in your progress along the way, will give you the tools to embark on new experiences with full confidence that you will come out on top. Furthermore, it will allow you to live in the moment and embrace every situation with an open mind rather than urging you to rush to the next moment.

Therefore, I encourage you to remain patient, have faith in your vision, trust the process, and believe in your ability to reach the unthinkable. There's greatness within you, remember that!

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.
