WHEN I GROW UP/Rashea@LLO2 Academy For Youth
You don't have to wait to grow up to be great. You are great right now. Live in the now factor. The future of tomorrow will take care of itself.
Teachers and parents don't ask you what you want to be at 5, 7, 11 or even 15 for nothing. They know that dreams are alive within you right now. There mission is to nurture your dreams with learning, growth and development and inspiration. So what do you want to be when you grow up?
An astronaut? A teacher? A professional gymnast?
An engineer? A designer? A soccer player? A scientist or a doctor?
These may seem all common place, but these are real dreams alive in your heart. Passion meets purpose. Purpose meets will.
You will succeed. You will be a teacher. You will be a computer engineer. You will sail the seas and travel the world. You will be a reknowned soccer player or gymnast.
You will. You will. You will.
If no one has ever told you, YOU WILL. For heavens sake, I am telling you, you will. YOU WILL.
Do YOU believe you will? You have to believe you will. You right now at 5, at 7, at 11 or even at 16 years old have to believe that your dreams and goals are possible.
Parental encouragement is nice, but sometimes life gets busy. Don't always wait for adults to push you. PUSH yourself, especially in your teenage years. What and who you want to become should be the driving force that pushes you to explore, discover, create and become what you dream of becoming.
Write down some goals and fulfill those goals. I am not just talking about just any kind of goals. These are goals pushing you into the direction of your dreams.
Parents when your child tells you they want to be a doctor, an executive of a major corporation or a television analyst of some kind, don't say to your child, "You can't do that."πππ€¦♀️ Say, "Okay. You will."π©π§π¦ππ―
Children, often times, are discouraged by their parents lack of encouragement or driven to pursue their dreams because their parents are just as excited as they are about who and what they want to become. When your child knows you have their back, they are pushed to overcome adversity and peer pressure to be mediocre.
Growing up is all about becoming who you know you were meant to be all along. Dare to dream. When I grow up I will be...
Still thinking.π
