50 Facts About Me.

Hey!
I'm currently all snuggled up in bed, candles burning, relaxing before our game tomorrow. I had 2 exams this week so I'm enjoying some free time this weekend. We won our first game of the weekend  yesterday 3-0 and we take on St Francis tomorrow at 1pm. 

Things are very busy with me in America right now. With 2 games every weekend, we are well into the heart of our season and things are really starting to pick up. I'm really excited play Championship games and hopefully maintain our title as A10 Champs! I also can't wait for my parents to come and visit. This year is already flying by! The weather is starting to change here in Massachusetts. It's getting a little colder, the trees are changing colour and I just can't wait for Autumn/Fall!

Get Motivated.

Motivation is key. It's what makes you get up in the morning, better yourself everyday and pushes you to achieve your dreams. Everybody's motivation is different and it's important that you find what drives you in order to help you to succeed.

"If you can dream it, you can do it."

I have my big dreams but I also set myself goals, daily, monthly and annually. What I wish to achieve this week, this year or before I'm 25 is private to me and I rarely discuss my dreams with anyone. My reason for this is that my dreams scare me, because I dream big. However, I believe in myself and what I'm doing. I once read that "if your dreams do not scare you, they are not big enough." I live by that advice and aim to challenge myself as much as I possibly can.

Now it really doesn't matter what your dreams, goals or aims are. It's irrelevant how big or small they are but it is important that you stay focused and use your motivation to achieve exactly what you want, whether it's training harder, studying better, eating healthier, staying positive, completing chores or getting organised. You can do it. Stay committed and push yourself outside of your comfort zone. 

People motivate me. Watching others succeed is why I get up everyday. I admire so many people on this earth, from my family to sports stars or business entrepreneurs. Whatever your motivation is, even if it's a quote, a person, a theory or your religion, remind yourself of it everyday.

"Believe you can, and you're half way there."

Whenever you feel that things aren't going your way or your plan isn't quite working out, change it yourself. Think back to why you're doing what you're doing and use your motivation. You can motivate yourself from within and I urge you to do so and create your own happiness in life! Don't let people or circumstances determine what YOU want to do with YOUR life.

Dream Big.
