Who Are You? | The Odyssey Online

Who are you? What do you stand for? I'm writing this article for the dreamers, for the ones who want to be something in life, you can do it! As a dreamer myself I think to myself doubt, and I want some type of motivation to drive me, but I have to realize that I am the motivation. It's up to me to do the things I want to do in life. I have to get up and do the things I want to do, and not rely on someone to make or influence me to do so. In life doors will open, but it is entirely up to you if you want to go through them.

I was in class the other day and this guy by the name of Brian McIntosh aka B-mac came into the room to talk to the class about how he's been in the outside world. Now previously I had heard from b-mac from a former teacher of mine. I heard this guy had received a job at ESPN, I couldn't believe it, but once I heard b-mac's backstory it all made sense. He was a normal guy like me, but what separates him from the rest of the pack, is his determination and his drive. Anybody can be successful, but you must be ready to grind and do what you need to do. This guy changed majors his senior year, worked part time and to top it off took extra classes at UNC. B-mac had an unwilling drive to go after what he wanted, nothing could stand in his way.

You have to breathe success in order to be successful, I learned that a long time ago. Only you know how much you want something, if you want something really bad, go for it. Never have barriers or boundaries as to what you can do and what you are capable of. You can do anything you put your mind too. Be the best you can be...

Who Are You? You are amazing! You are ready! Be great!

Holding on to your dream and staying focused is very important....I know I said it once but I will say it again....

Want success as badly as you want to breathe....and not even failure will make you want to quit.

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.

College involves a whirlwind of emotions, whether it’s from the stress of an assignment (or twenty), or from fighting with your roommate. It can be overwhelming at times and it’s important to take a step a back and calmly think things over. Maybe gain some perspective. The following aren’t foolproof tips and may not apply to you, but I was able to find success with them (hope you do too!)

It is no secret that many American traditions have changed over time. As we grow older we change in so many ways that it only makes sense that we also change the way we celebrate special occasions. Of course when it comes to the holidays there are some family traditions that many of us still excitedly look forward to, whether it is eating your favorite dish or seeing favorite cousin. However, we all know that the holidays have overall changed a little from what they used to be.
