Recommended: Factors affecting self-motivation

My career and personal life goals has been in the past experimental. I was seeking more money and not focusing on success. Then I moved to Colorado roughly three years ago and have been breathing in a new life.

For a year and a half I have been employed at a local Internet Provider, Zirkel Wireless. To be the most knowledgeable resource, one must strive to be the best in what they do. My employer has challenged me to step out of the box, to push my limits, and to improve on my success. They have given me a book with blank pages and asked me to fill them. Today, I am challenged with what I should write and how to do it.

I have mornings, nights, weekends, and an office to complete my studies. My schedule will allow for at least three hours per credit hour I take. Of the many places I have to study, my favorite is the office after hours. Currently, I spend many hours after hours learning more about my trade. Environment is most important for success and assistance.

Assistance, for me, is readily available. I work within a team that we can ask for help and it is there. On one particular project, we had to analyze and configure hundreds of connections. There was a field technician who had extra time. I asked him for his assistance and he obliged my request. I was not long to train him and finish the project that day. We were successful in finishing the project early and this allowed for me to be successful in more projects.

The time is right for me to return to school. In the past, I had made mistakes that turned into learning experiences. My life brought me more challenges to grow. I have found myself today in a great community with astounding support. My personal life is enriched by caring and loving people. My employer is alum of CSU and understands the importance of commitment to education. I feel my path has given me the unique opportunity to begin writing a new book, a second chance. Excitement is enriching my curiosity of what can happen and I look forward to the day I can be called, "a college

  • Benefits of Living On Campus

    Time management is one of the most crucial factors to college success for every student in college. Firstly, while living on campus, time usually isn’t an issue to students because they live on school grounds. There are many advantages that come with time and one of them is getting to class on time. However, this is actually the opposite for commuters because getting to class on time is quite a struggle. They have to struggle to wake up earlier than usual in order to use the public transportation. Students living on campus also have more access to on-site facilities because they don’t have to worry about going home so there is no time limit on how long they occupy these areas. An example is staying in the library because this is where you can get help from tutors on subjects you are struggling with. Also, they can use the writing center for as long as it is open without worrying about time. In contrast, commuters are limited to the use of these facilities because they have to take time into consideration while staying at the library or work...

I remember that I used to have everything under control in my life, but after I graduated from high school I realize that high school, in fact, did not prepare me for the real world. In high school, everything was effortless and unchallenging. Although, I had six classes, the effort needed for each class does not compare with what a real college class requires.
