But imagine if Thomas Edison or anyone before him had given up because they failed. I'm sure there were thousands of attempts before reaching the desired goal. I'm sure there were many disappointments. Now I want all of you to think about your journey. How many times have you set a goal in your life and you gave up after failing the first time? How many disappointments did it take for you to say forget it? One thing I can tell you guys is that life is filled with disappointments. it's something that we can't avoid no matter how hard we try. There is a purpose in all of us. We are filled with creativity and great ideas. Don't ever let your mistakes and failures keep you from reaching your goals. Whether you are a non-traditional student who didn't get it right the first time or a single mother or father who wants to provide a better life for your children. It's never too late. You have a light inside you. Maybe it was dim, but keep trying and you will eventually shine bright! You can do it! Have a great night guys!
Hello! My name is Victoria Alford. I am a non-traditional student at ULM and my major is Social Work. I have always had a passion to help people and I decided to get serious and go back to school. Working towards my degree has been very interesting and tedious. I've created this blog to encourage anyone who is attempting to return to school after being away from it for many years. This is a very important profession especially in the world today. If we work hard, we will achieve success!
