Like everyone else, I want to succeed. I want to grow up and be happy. I want a family, a nice house, a good job, and a life that I can be proud of. I want to realize my potential and do everything I can to maximize it. My biggest fear is falling short of my potential and settling for mediocrity. The only problem is, I don’t know how to define success for myself. I don’t know what I’m best at. I don’t know which field I will excel in. I’m still not even sure if there’s a solid answer for everyone. Does a perfect job even exist? Will I waste my talents and compromise my happiness if I follow the wrong path? These are the questions that scare me; the questions that are unknown, and probably will be forever. I need to find myself and answer my calling.
