DREAM BIG or DREAM NONE!

ok so as teens we sometimes decide to make a couple of wrong decision through our high school careers. That is quite normal but this is sometimes discouraging when senior year comes around and that is a BIG NO NO! yeah you screwed up but we are not ALL perfect you were bound to screw up with so many temptations and stress causers like relationships, friendships and family problems. i guess its part of the process of life but this screwing up shouldn't destroy your dreams it should make your dreams stronger...ok think about it! you have actually MADE IT to your senior year and are dreaming big even though you know you have screwed up a little...that's already an accomplishment considering many people drop out because they get discouraged easily! now dreaming big is important. yeah yeah everyone says "stop dreaming so much you gotta be realistic" and maybe they are a little right because you can't say "YES! i'm going to be a millonaire by next year" or "I ROCK! because by the time i'm 22 i'm going to already find cure for cancer, a machine to stop global warming, and be the richest woman/man alive". i'm not saying it can't happen i'm just saying that's a little far fetched there buddy! BUT you CAN say "yeah i'm going to get into a state university and get a doctorate in _______ and work in ______ once i get out of there and later on in life i'm going to be able to have big bucks rolling in" that dream is BIG but its a little more reasonable considering the time line is well-planned out and its still REALISTIC! if you don't dream then whats the point of still going on with education?? you gotta dream to be able to become SOMEBODY in life, not just another person in the world. DREAMS are like goals in other words. they lead you in the right way because you want to achieve those dreams that just by thinking about them now you get all happy about!!!! there is also no point in "dreaming" little things like "yeah i'm going to get a GED and then become a manager in the fast food place at the corner YAY ME!"...NO WAY!!!! that is not even dreaming that is just CONFORMING yourself with whatever comes along! so either you dream BIG or don't dream at all! so just dream big and those dreams will lead you to a better future and life even if its a rough start!!!!!!
