To My Future Self (In Case Doc Brown Makes DeLoreans): The Grand Finale

www.quickmeme.com
Dear Future Me,

     This is you x days from the past (I don't know when you'll be reading this; just know that this was during the last few days of your first semester in college), and I don't know how you are doing whenever you are reading this. I wanted to write this letter to encourage you and to motivate you when the tough times come since, you know, we tend to mope a lot when they do come.

     Just know that, if you are struggling or barely keeping afloat in your homework or your grades, there is always a way in the end. The fact that you might be performing worse than you thought you would does not mean that you cannot find other alternatives to achieve your dreams. And even if you can't find any other way, that means that there must be something else that you were meant to do in the world. 

     Also, enjoy every moment you spend in college, including the bad ones. Going to college is a once-in-a-lifetime experience (unless you want to go back to college again, for some unknown reason), and many wish that they could have the chance to pursue higher education. Be motivated when you receive less-than-okay grades: that means you can improve. Be still motivated when you receive great grades: there's always higher! Whatever happens, do not be discouraged--that is the worst thing you can be.

     Last, keep doing your best, no matter the odds. The worst thing to do in college is knowing that you could have tried harder to obtain better grades. As long as you know, without a shadow of a doubt, that you did everything in your power (and then some) to get what you have, then you can continue with no regrets.

     You can do it!

Your Old Self
