It’s not the
mountain we conquer, but ourselves.

Have you ever noticed how much you can fit inside a suitcase
if you neatly fold it all instead of throwing it in? It’s the same with our
life; the more organized you are, the more you can pack into your life. More
time for family, friends, homework, and yourself.
There are 4 different types of people: Procrastinator, Prioritizer,
Yes- Man, and Slacker.
The Procrastinator’s motto is “I’ll stop procrastinating… sometime
soon.” You may know a procrastinator. Don’t expect them to work on a paper or
study for a test until the night before; so working with them in group projects
is a disaster, everyone is done their part, and they haven’t even started.
The Yes-man’s motto is “Yeah, sure! No problem.” They have a
real hard time saying no to anyone. They try so hard to please everyone that he
usually ends up pleasing no one, including themselves. They cave to peer
pressure very easily because they want to be popular and don’t want to stand
out.
The Prioritizer focuses on the things that are important than the other things. Their homework is
always handed in on time, and still has time for friends and themselves. They take
a look at everything they have to do and then prioritize like wise.
Putting first things first takes courage and will often cause
you to stretch outside of your comfort zone. You comfort zone is filled with
all the things you are familiar with, places you know friends you hang out with
often. But the courage zone is all about making new friends, speaking before
large audiences. Everything that makes us feel uncomfortable is here, but it is
also the only place where you could meet your full potential.
