So far my experience in Baruch college can be summarized in the picture below. That message being that you control your own destiny as in you decide how much work you put in and what you get out of it. Before coming to Baruch I knew that, but I never really found the motivation to try my hardest. In high school I was always that kid who never worked to his potential because of laziness. My report card was filled with comments like “Needs to try harder” or “Would have a higher grade if he worked harder.” I was definitely aware of it though so I never really talked smack about the teacher or try to defend my grades. Now in college , I am working to that potential because even if i do procrastinate to extreme levels, at the end of the day, the work actually gets done, and it gets done well. I have gotten rid of distractions that I had in high school and have seen a positive change. Overall is been a decent 3 months and I look forward to what the next semester brings me .
Hi Adrian, I really like your photo, it says a lot about the direction you are headed in. Taking accountability for one’s actions and doing the best you can carries a lot of weight. May you always go for your full potential!
Adrian, you are 100%. If you focus on something and put your mind on what you want you can do anything.
