What do you want people to remember you as? A person who never gave up or someone that is all talk when it comes to doing something, could never get it done. Think about for a second, do you want to be remembered as someone that’s lazy or someone that’s always hustling. What do you want to be remembered as?


One of the most powerful tools you have is the impact you leave on others. There are always people looking at you, some are looking up to you and others are looking and trying to see how long it’s going to take before you fail. But you know what it does not matter either way what is important is the impact you want to leave on their lives.

Don't expect anyone to believe in your dreams, they didn’t ask you to do what you are doing. You are doing it because you want to do it! This is Your dream! don't expect anyone to help you, don't expect anyone to give you guidance. It's not their dream, it’s yours! So how hard are you willing to work and achieve these dreams to prove all these people wrong; To leave your legacy for your family. And also to be remembered always as a hustler, not as a person who gave up. Listen you are going to have rough days; you are going to have days where you don’t feel motivated.


But It is more important how fast you can jump back from those days and learn from them. Your fighting for something that is bigger than yourself. How bad are you willing to fight? And what kind of legacy you want to leave behind?

Happy Birthday Cake

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?
