Defining Moments

How I responded to discouragement

  • THE NOISE

    Messages from Society in general:

    You should know what you want to do when you finish school, get a full time job, start a family.

  • How I responded:

    I tried working in the "real world", but decided I really wanted to go back to school to get what I wanted. I applied, and when I got in I made the choice to actually take that step. In the end, everyone was proud of me for it.
