It can be hard to stand out in school. Find out what your passions are and what makes you unique and embrace them.
3) “You miss 100% of the shots you don’t take.” ~Wayne Gretzky
If you never try, you will never fail, but you won’t succeed either. Use this school year to take risks and try something new.
4) “A dream doesn’t become reality through magic; it takes sweat, determination and hard work.” ~Colin Powell
It is important to have dreams and passion, it is also important to know what you need to do to achieve those dreams and passions. Some of the most rewarding accomplishments will take the most work.
5) “Don’t count the days, make the days count.” ~Muhammad Ali
As you approach the end of your senior year, it can be easy to count the days left. Don’t forget to make the most of your education and enjoy every day you have to learn and grow.

8) “Success is liking yourself, liking what you do, and liking how you do it.” ~Maya Angelou
Be confident about who you are. High school and college are the perfect time to explore and discover what you love doing.
Stick with it, know who you are, be confident, make the most of every opportunity, love what you do, work hard; these are all themes some of the most successful and happy people cling to. Use these themes to stay inspired and glean all you can from your education.
