It Is Never Boring To Work Hard At Any Age

“I believe in hard work and luck, and that the first often leads to the second.” J.K. Rowling

It Is Never Boring To Work Hard At Any Age

It pays to work hard at any age

There is something down to earth about being a respected author and people can find change when they are like J.K. Rowling. There is something that amassed the leaders and followers to the story that is Harry Potter and there is something that is accomplished when you believe the concept of writing an award-winning book series.

It pays when it comes to working for pennies but there are artists, writers and musicians that know first hand the creative circle and the extreme conditions they find themselves in. You can stand your ground and know the in's and out's of a certain life but the whole procedure of finding success is the norm.

Today, many people can find a job once they graduate from a college or university, but becoming popular and rich can take some time or if they are not all that lucky then this won’t come at all. For seventeen years, J.K. Rowling told us her life story and the story of the wizardly world of Harry Potter and yet when you do research on her, you can sense that success only comes to the few.

It can also mean that she was chosen. It may have created a debate whether a person can seal their future by being academic or if they must start from the bottom. Any parent can imagine their child being successful but to achieve success you need to understand who you are as a person and know your failures.

Like J.K. Rowling, it may have been admirable to beat poverty but it really helped measure her success. She took it seriously and felt like an incredible person to look up to. It took a few steps to believe in courage but after doing something you love, you can understand the knowledge and connection with others in the world.

It may be surprising that millennials will probably not get out of debt but will celebrate their graduation with firm joy. It may not be the world they are expecting to work in but they can be brave and just give it their all and work their way up. It is something that can constitute either disappointment or scrutiny. At times, it is detected in their graduation walk that they can see what their lives will be like as a worker in the real world but almost instantly you can see for yourself that previous generations have already found that niche.

In fact, it is indicated in our genes. It reminds us of our livelihood and the feelings or emotions that are conjured inside. To work hard at any age even for J.K. Rowling isn’t fun but it can find a place for you in this world while also saving face. It will keep you sane and not overwhelmed and makes you alert. Even when life moves faster and faster. Work can bring out the good in us all.

You can see it with this quote from J.K. Rowling

“I believe in hard work and luck, and that the first often leads to the second.”

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
