Classes. Finals. Traditions. Graduation. Starting life after
college all happened in a month's time. Everything was so fast paced that just
a week ago I asked myself, how did I get here? Has it really been a month since
I graduated? Is this the last time the SQUAD is going to be all together before
we start our careers? WHAT DO I DO NOW?....
WAIT WHAT?!
Since then I realized I was (& currently
am) in a state of being uncomfortable. Living on my own, moving on without
specific friendships, having a real job that will help launch my career in
corporate America, finally having time to dedicate to my blog & other
hobbies, but also seeing everyone emerge and gain success through those
hobbies that you start a long time ago before the saturation is frustrating, to be honest with y'all.
HOWEVER...
Taking a step back & evaluating where
I am in life I have to remember that to reach greater heights YOU HAVE TO BE UNCOMFORTABLE. Now I
know what you're thinking... "what?, I have to be UNcomfortable to be successful?" Well ... yes because
when you think about it, would you want
to be comfortable in the place you are RIGHT NOW?
REALLY THINKING ABOUT IT!
For instance, say there is this
job/internship, person, or GPA that you have been aiming for. You have
researched, studied, & even updated your LinkedIn profile all to get
noticed! With that you have had some gains but also some fails, but nonetheless
you have not let that stop you from being great. So now that you have complete
all of the major checkpoints in life, you come upon a fork (where the path
splits) in the road. You try to look down a little ways to see what is ahead
but there's nothing there.
OR IS THERE...
Just when you think there is nothing for
you, you realized there is more than enough room for GROWTH & OPPORTUNITY;
YOU are the painter to the canvas, the author of your story, & the meaning
to your art.
With that being said, I decided to express my uncomfortable state
of opportunity through pictures which is my form of art! Enjoy.
Below share your thoughts & your own
personal struggles in the comments!
