Defining Moments
How I responded to discouragement
THE NOISE
Messages from Parents:
I was discouraged to go to college because may older siblings had started their education, but quit early into their training. I was the first in my entire family to get a 4 yr degree. The first generation, out of 20 cousins.
How I responded:
Get grants and loans and part time jobs. Stay focused on your goal. Smile and tell them - you got this!!!!
