Five People and Five Things

When it comes to pursuing your dreams, I agree that it is essential to share your visions and spend time with people who you feel will help you achieve your goals. I chose the following five people because I believe that they will help me achieve my goals. I chose Ryan because he is a part of the iQuest program and will be with me throughout the year pushing me to accomplish my goals in the program and do my best at my internship. I chose Ben because he has been one of my best friends throughout high school and has always been there for me. We share some of the same visions, which I believe is why we are so close and why I think he is a great person for me to share my goals with. I chose my mom as my third person because she is always very supportive of me while also pushing me to ensure that I am always putting in the work to achieve my goals. I think it is very beneficial to have someone who is always behind you. My fourth person is my older brother who I have always looked up to as a role model. Seeing someone like him, who is not afraid to pursue his dreams and always willing to put the work in, makes him a great person to share my aspirations with. My fifth person is another good friend of mine, Gurshawn. He is by far the most positive person I know and he always believes in other people. I think this positive spirit is another key element to having someone who is always going to support my dreams. 

I am always the first to admit that I am quite a bit of a procrastinator. Sometimes, I like putting things off in an effort to reduce my stress and force myself to deal with them later. My first item is submitting my college apps, I have been postponing it till the deadline, but I think its best if I submit them right now. My second item is asking for more work at my internship. I would like a bit of a larger role, with me contributing more, so I think I should ask my mentor about it. Another item I have been putting off is relaxing a bit and taking more time to appreciate the friendships and relationships I have in my life. I think I need to slow things down a bit and enjoy how senior year is going.
