Learning To Be a Cupcake In A World Full of Muffins
3:00:00 AMIt's hard to stand out in this world. It's hard to make a name for yourself, to become something, to prove that you are worth it, to show that you can do it. You see people walk into work everyday; all in suits, all trying to accomplish the same thing: success. But what is success really? Is it making a ton of money? Is it living comfortably and debt free? Is it being surrounded by family? We all have a different meaning of what success is but the one thing I think we can all agree on is that we all want to be…something and achieve something.
Something that is more than a suit walking into work, something that is more than a name on a paycheck, something that is more than the grades on a report card, something that is more than a test score, or grade point average. We all want to be recognized, noticed, cherished, loved, cared for, and appreciated.
The key is knowing how to do this; how to become a cupcake. Everyday I try to figure out what I can do to make it…what I need to do to make it. I obviously haven't figured it out yet, as I'm still living paycheck to paycheck, splurging on chic-fi-la, cherishing the minimal time I have with family. I'd like to think I am at the chocolate chip muffin stage. The question is, how can I become a cupcake?
Someone once told me that if you want to succeed as bad as you want to breathe, then you will be successful. Well, there is no doubt I have passion for what I do and everyday I wake up and pray that today will be the day that I can make things happen, that I can make it happen. There are a few things that I do that I am hoping will help me reach the cupcake stage…
I pray,
I work hard,
I am passionate,
and I Never Give Up.
I think about my ultimate goal in life. I can picture it in my head, see it in my near future, and that is what keeps me going. I will never give up. I refuse to give up…I want it too bad.
To all those wanting to be something, I am here to tell you that you can be whatever you'd like. It may at times feel like you have no support, that you are a lone muffin, but you are not.
