Have you ever taught a freshman class at a college or university? The students that reside on campus are excited about being away from their parents. Most express they are looking forward to doing things on the own. The campus layout facilitates for them a perception of living the dreams of their life for the next four years. Zoning on campus is clearly defined with important areas designated for eating, sleeping, exercising and studying. Everything is paid for an exciting place to reside!
Conversely, there are some students who continue to reside with their parents at home. In addition, they have to continue to share in the chores, have to find a part-time job, attend college part-time and get distracted by other things they may have to do during college and work. They have boundaries and curfews as they are not in their own place. The zoning and layout is not that easily navigated and may have siblings at home who depend on them to do things for them.
Well, this is not unique to college students it applies to adults as well. The commonality of situations like these is that you have to Empower Yourself on your journey of life. Success does not just happen; you have to work at it. How is your life going? Are you where you want to be? Does your life reflect a plan for the next one, three or five years? Do you have the confidence needed to move to your next level of success? Oprah Winfrey said, “I would rather be prepared and never selected, than to be selected and not prepared.”

It will keep you focused and encourage you to be better and not bitter - because you remain in the same situation year after year. The great news is, you don’t have to take this journey alone.
