I've been thinking a lot about my goals lately. I have new goals every day and oftentimes, they change based on what is going on around me/in my life. We should always be motivated to reach our goals, but sometimes I find myself just "hoping" that my goals are achieved. It's not that I don't…
As I have now completed my undergraduate studies at Rockhurst University, I am starting to think a bit more about my future. Where I want to go, what I want to do, how I can try to get there, etc. My goals - my dreams - are ahead of me. I have experienced something…
For as long as I can remember, I can't wait for next steps in life. I am always looking forward to everything that is going to come next, how I am going to do it, etc. I am someone who is borderline obsessed with organization - I just love being able to get my ducks…
