Whenever we get in a car to go to the store, another city, anywhere, someone is in the driver's seat. I remember when I started my first semester of college, my professor said something that I will never forget (in 2008 to be exact).
She asked the class, "Why are you here?" "Why did you decide to go to college this semester?" "Who's in the driver's seat of your car which represents your life?" Some students said they were there because their parent's forced them. Others gave different answers. But what stuck with me was her question. "Who/what is driving your life?"
This is the same question I pass to you. Who or what has been in control of your life?
The opinion of your friends?
Your boyfriend?
An addiction you can't seem to break?
Your parents because you don't know what you want?
Now, think with me. If the thing/person in the driver's seat (which represents your life) is not you, then where is your life headed? Where are you going?
If you stop and look at your life and your not happy with what you have accomplished up to now, if your not satisfied, or you have no idea where your life is headed, I invite you to come to the upcoming event that will take place in Oakland this month. Share this invitation with your friends or family. See you there!
