Nothing in this wold can take the place of persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful people with talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the wold is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and Determination alone are omnipotent.
Calvin Coolidge
Ok, so day 1. Today i going to define my idea of success.
Success to me: In life, i want to be happy. I want to have a family, with a beautiful wife and kids. I would like to make a difference in the lives of people. I am planning on becoming a teacher. Right now I am getting more and more excited every day to be one. There are endless ways to make a difference in young adolescents. I dont want to worry about my finances. I would like to make six figures, and achieving that will be difficult as a teacher, but i am positive i can find some way of doing so. Becoming a teacher and a farmer, well, they both are quite low-income jobs, but they are what i love. I love teaching people about what i love, farming and agriculture. So what better way than becoming an Agriculture Teacher. I want my name to be one of those names that when mentioned, people say, "that is one great man that has made a difference in the lives of millions." I guess my outlook on success is this: I want to be financially stable and happy, with a happy loving family, and making a difference in the lives of the people that I surround myself with every day.
