If I could go back in time and give myself advice, it would be this. Take time to really think things through, your future depends on the decisions you make today. Every decision made is as a seed planted into the ground, the right decisions will grow flowers. The wrong decisions will grow weeds. College is the key to your future, so give everything you have. Do not take time off because every day is precious and you do not get them back. Set goals for the future for goals will help you to achieve the dream. Goals give you focus, and will keep you on track. Live a humble life, so you do not stumble from your own arrogance. Give to others because it is in giving that you learn how to receive. Most of all do be sure never to neglect the ones you love, for they are the major support systems in your life. Without your families and friends, your struggles would be unbearable. Find out what you are passionate about and keep your eye on the prize, do not be distracted by what is unnecessary. Focus will get you to the finish line.
