My Motivation Tto Attend College
Family, Pressure, and that scary feeling of failing in life have motivated me to pressure college. I need to be honest in high school, senior year to be exact I was at a point that I really didn’t want to attend college. I didn’t really see a valid reason to go and waste countless hours doing homework and paying so much money for something I wasn’t really interested in. College was drifting away from my future slowly every day. As days went on and my high school graduation just around the corner I had this epic moment that probably everyone has once in their lifetime, I remember that I came from school I said “ what’s up” to my mom working in the garage ,and I saw how tired she was. I said to my self “man , she look dead”. I realized that those thought of college that where drifting away slowly came back to me in hyper speed. I notice how my parents work so hard and how its so hard to get good descent job nether the less a job these days . That I realized if I don’t want to be in that positions were my mother is at I need to attend college, I need to strive for a successful future. I Started to think and I really want to be the topic of my moms conversation in every family party, I want to be her pride and joy just like my other sisters are to her. So I guess the root of my motivation would be myself and the fears of letting my mother and family down. I see how hard my mom works to support my sisters and my education, that the pressure of me being some one in life so one day I can pay my mom back for everything she gives us and offers to us ,serves me as the biggest motivation I have put on my self. I feel that Puente with the help and advice of my professors Voltaire and Susie, is going to be one of the foundations in building my dreams of my future, that I am and will succeed in.
Families have a significant affect on the choices we make. They don't even have to say anything sometimes. Your mother's hard work is a symbol of her aspirations for you and the success that will come along with it.
