On a weekly basis I find myself overwhelmed, many students in this day in age are just like me. We have full class loads and work about 30 hours a week. Now I’m a senior and I added an internship into the mix. Don’t get me wrong…I am very grateful to have such a great internship, but juggling it all isn’t easy. What always keeps me going is knowing that one day all my hard work will pay off. In life when we are overwhelmed, words of wisdom can be very inspiring and helpful.
“Success is not final; failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts.” – Winston Churchill
Whether you failed a test or didn’t make that A that you wanted on your research paper…it’s okay. That test or that paper doesn’t define you in your future career. Have the courage to continue and keep working hard.
