Never Lose by JaCorielle

Never Lose by JaCorielle - May 2014 Scholarship Essay

The best piece of educational advice that I have recieved, I would say was to "never lose focus of your goal". In this time, it is a bit easy to lose focus on your goal or on what is important to you. There are so many distractions even when you do not realize it. This has helped me stay on track in school and to not lose focus on what is important to me. I always am focused on everything that I need to get done. I felt that just because I am smart and have good grades, that that could take me anywhere and is the key to success. What I did not realize was that there are more things involved to be successful in lifesuch as time, patience, and money. My goal is to go to college and make my dream career happen.

Time is a key thing because everything takes time and it will not come as fast as you want it to. You have to have patience becasue you could be waiting for so long and it could make you want to give. Patience is an extreme thing to have. You are not guaranteed every scholarhip but you have to wait.Money is a major importance for my goal. I need money to go the school of my chopice and it was more than I expected.

My goal is simple. I just have to put my brain, heart, and soul into it so I can achieve my potential. I know that it is tough, but I will do anything and whatever I can to make sure they come try. So you should never lose focus and keep your eye on the prize.
