living up to being successful


So last night I was discussing with someone about my family. I explained how successful my family is, and how hard it is to live up to their reputation. I don't necessarily think that the reputation is what is what I am stressing about the most. In high school you have to stay strong, make wise decisions, because high school is such a crucial point to where one some slip up effects your future. A good education can back you up throughout your entire life. Education and knowledge is so powerful, without it, we would be so naive and making so many mistakes we couldn't handle anything. That is what scares me, high school is where it's at, everything i do in this period of time effects where i will be standing in the future.

  1. You can't forget though that it's not just one slip up, because you learn from your mistakes and become even better. You learn more from making a mistake then you can from making life perfect because you never go out and see oh there is other stuff out there. High school is a big part of our lives, and it is needed, but don't forget you can still get far with nothing. My friend met someone new today who made him realize that anything in life is possible. His name is Jeremy and he is 25, he is 200-250 THOUSAND dollars short of being a millionaire, every penny he got he earned on his own and worked for on his own, he flips house's and makes a good profit off them.
    High school alone is a starting point but yet also a stopping point in our lives. Even if we don't make it outta high school, there is still SO much we can do, and STILL live up to success.
