2. Before I started the MCBS Program, I was very
unhappy with how my life was turning out
3. I had begun to settle for less than what I had always expected to accomplish.
4. I had always thought I would make a difference and experience new exciting things.
5. But then I got comfortable with just doing what others expected me to do.
6. I was doing what people were telling me I should, instead of doing
something that made me feel fulfilled in my life.
7. Because of that I started to become very discouraged with
my life and where it was headed.
8. Because of that a day came where I finally had it with my
situation and development of my future.
9. Because of that I started really thinking about what I had
a passion for and where I really wanted to be going with
my life.
10. I came to a conclusion that if I were going to be able to
accomplish my dreams and goals I would need a degree in
my field of choice.
11. Once that decision was made I sat down and began to
explore the different schools and programs that were
available and offered degrees in the field that I chose.
12. I decided right away I needed to set specific goals, not just
for graduating, but for after graduation as well.
13. I chose my dream job, and I also formulated a plan on how to get there.
14. I was very meticulous in speaking with and talking to a very
select group of peers and close friends to help me take the best
path.
15. When I was making this plan I had a unique circumstance
on my hands that I had to also consider.
16. I am a single mother so every choice I was making
had to positively impact my son's life as well.
17. So once I had all of the proper elements in place to
positively achieve my goals I have been in the process of
getting all of the fundamentals I will need to become a
successful television producer.
