Nothing you can say can stop me from going on, living on and reaching home. I find that motivation is all around us, yet not everyone pays enough attention to recognize it. Even those that see it, don’t really register it and just keep going on their daily lives – unmotivated, unsatisfied and just settling for what is given to them. I have learned to always recognize that motivation, the positive spark, that tiny speck of hope. For if I didn’t learn to recognize it, how am I supposed to know what to look for? Nothing should and will stop me from going on and believing I can live on to reach my goal. For when I do, I’ll finally be home. Can you see that shining light?

So Many Goals, So Little Time
August 13, 2007 · Leave a Comment
I find myself in this situation yet again in life. I seem to have found motivation. Motivation that I once had, but had lost for a long time. When it seemed to have been gone forever, it sneaked up on me. I was not ready for it, I will admit that it surprised me. Even though I was not expecting it, I’m taking full grasp of it and not letting go. “Take it and run with it” comes to mind. I’m setting the goals up high – too fall hard? No. To push myself. A drive for success.
For I now know that I am more than what I thought I was. Some people had already expressed those feelings about me, but I dismissed them thinking they just wanted to make me feel better. I now see the way, a clear path, an open highway, and pedal shall reach the floor.

First Weeks, First Team, First Team Mates, First Check
June 29, 2007 · 3 Comments
A lot of firsts the last couple of weeks. A new chapter of my life is just taking shape, and already it feels like a whole new book. Wal-Mart ISD is NOT what I had imagined at all. It’s WAY better. I consider myself extremely lucky to be where I am today with this team, these team mates, and new home as a whole. The area is much like back home, but much more beautiful, of course missing my friends and family very much. I’ve been in and out of orientations, formal classes, half day training in the business side of what my team is involved with, and online training. So much so, that it feels as my B.S. was only an intro course into this. One thing is for sure, having the team mates that I do helps a lot, I feel welcomed and know that whenever I need help I will have it. The only thing I don’t like is how long it takes just to get up and running on my own project. All with good time.
Technology Dependence

Struggling to open my eyes, I coerce my legs to take me closer to the source of the obnoxious sound to turn it off after minutes of listening to the sound. After several attempts, silence fills the room and am urged to fill the void with something pleasant. Brushing over several buttons, the power button is finally found and the sweet sounds of Sports Center is like coffee to my system as it wakes me up. I open up my laptop to check my mail and the morning news and check the weather to decide what to wear. As I make my way to the closet I pick up my Razr and switch sound profiles. After getting dressed, eating some breakfast and doing all a person does in the morning, I head over to the door – picking up my iPod on the way.
Five electronic devices and several services in less than an hour. I’m sure that I am not alone in saying that my life revolves around technology. Are we too dependent on all this tech goodness? Probably. Is it a bad thing? Dependence if there is electricity available. I honestly cannot pin point the time my life evolved so much to be dependent on all these various gadgets and services that make life so much easier.
Worst part about this way of life is that most of us take it for granted. We go along our days without stopping to appreciate the small things of life that truly matter and make life so precious and beautiful. When was the last time you smelled a flower or looked up at the sky and marvel at its beauty? If you can’t recall the last time, then stop what ever it is that you are doing and enjoy some simple part of life right now. I dare you!
