Tina Turner

“Do not give up, stay strong, keep your head up high, keep trying, work hard, you got this…” these are few of the many different phrases my best friend has said to me.

My best friend managed to do 3 sports in high school and still graduate with a 4.0 GPA. She never had excuses for anything, she just focused on what was important and stayed determined. In wise, her determination reinforced my mentality. It made me think further of my expectations and analyze what a successful person I can be if I worked hard for what I want. That also influenced the responsible person I am today because even though I go out and do things I like, I still make time to do what is going to help me…
