LITTLE PATIENCE


When I was still young, I often hear my mom telling me that all successful people have that habit of doing the things failures don't like to do. They do not like doing them either but successful are the people who knew that success is something that does not just happens. That it is a process and that you have to get there. Being still an elementary student at that time, I do not realize the importance of those words,I merely considered themas as my mom's morning rituals every time she is trying to wake us up for school. But now that I grow a little more old and now that I realize that my turn to think about the world has come, I took my mom's morning rituals as my guide on my journey towards success.

I am currently a high school student, a graduating high school student. I am in a stage in my life where I should make a choice, a choice that will determine my future. And that choice is all about being a student or a lost brat. I chose to be a student. At first I thought that it will just be easy. As easy as counting numbers from one to ten,but I never thought that my decision to become a student would bring to a place where even my patience will be tested. I think every one in our batch admits that we will not be able to reach this far, being a graduating student, if it weren't for our patience. Patience in reading our books , sleeping late at night just to study for a grueling exam for tomorrow. Patience for the thousand stretching we have done to relax our tired muscles for balancing our studies and our extra curricular activities at our school.

Now, I have realize what my mom means, that choosing your road to success is not easy. There are things that you want to do but you just cannot because of something that is hindering you. Like, we often want to play computer games, but we cannot do that one at all times because we have to study. Do you think we like it, mow we do not like it really. But we have learned to love it because we know that we want to succeed in our career.
You see anything is possible as long as Patience is your driving force.
