I feel like I am in a good place right now. I am happy, motivated and inspired.
Today I thought back to about a year and half ago, my life was in such a daze, from dropping out of UCT to having no clue what I was to become one day. Then six months later, some of the darkness disappeared and I found myself back on the straight path to success, with a very long road ahead. Starting at an entirely new institution was daunting and yes I was afraid because I had exactly two and half years left before I'd complete my degree but I was optimistic that I could make a success of it. My biggest constraint was the time it would take to complete my degree: 30 months is a very long time, so much could happen and I felt like I was just never going to reach the end.
Reflecting on where I am presently in life, a year and six months later, I feel so much happier about the route I have taken, I am motivated, inspired and its not an effort to take out my books or start on an assignment, it is like second nature and I'm loving it. Time flew by so fast, I have 18 months left before I can finish this degree and things are looking great. I feel like its all falling into place. And I am certain that by the end of this I will be able to move on to my next step in life. But for now, I have to give this step my all because just like Maslow's need theory, I first need to complete this step before I can complete the rest of my pyramid to success.
