Listen to your heart...

Someone I greatly look up to has just inspired me tremendously.

She asked me, "Where do you see yourself in five years? Ten? Twenty?" I couldn't answer. I sat there awestruck, realizing that I really don't know where I see myself. "I love to do so many different things. I can't just decide what I want to do. I can't just give everything else up," I replied. She said to me that in life we all have to make sacrifices. Some big, some small. Some that are life changing.

I came to a conclusion. I want to do something that I will enjoy doing for the rest of my life. I want to do something I love, but that I can also live by. She does that. She goes to work every day with a smile on her face loving what she does. I look up to that so much and that is the reason why she is one of my inspirations. She has worked so hard to get to where she is and now she's where she wants to be. I want to be that.

So, now, every time I think about life, I sit down and I think of where I see myself in five, ten, twenty years. I really think about the choices I will make to shape it to make it into one that I will enjoy for the rest of my life.

One thing I will do is listen to my heart. Listen to what I truly want to do and how I truly feel.

I will succeed.
I will be happy.
I will enjoy the rest of my life.
No choice, but to live right.
