Life Skills

I think my life is based off of life skills. throughout my life I've been able to step up when pressure was building. Sacrifice a little to get a lot. stay determined and focus on primary goals as well as adapt to my environment.

there are things that i have and had to work on while going through these process to adult hood. i suffered with time managing skills, creating budgets and learning how to survive on my own. i was like a mommas boy/ grandmas boy. i didn't have to rely on much. when i woke up grandma hand things prepare for me. food, cloths, books etc. you name it it was done, not by me but by the women in my life. these were the days when i was leaving with my grandma. no one challenged me about my way of life. i was able to move at my own paste without having anyone push me and say things like i know you can do this if you put your mind to it. i mean i did well in school, i was a B average student. there was nothing no way had to say to me. the only problem, that i can only see now is that i had no life skills. i was so use to grandma and mommy being in the gap that i wasn't taking on the full pressure of life.

that all change when grandma passed. i had been taken care of for 21years of my life. so in order for me to develop life skills of my own. i moved out. it took me a while to develop my time management skills because i had no real schedule to work by. i was always late for work, didn't care to much about school anymore so of course i didn't go. i realized later when everything was crumbling; grades, work, etc that i need to live on and become the great man that my grandmother wanted.

there are a couple things that i still need to work on but i am much better at time management which was my biggest thing. i no longer need to sleep with an alarm clock. i still have it just in case. my grades are back on top like they should be and I'm more focus on my future and my goals.

I was just telling my manager how i am going to start investing more into myself. because i dish out so much money to services that i already know how to do. i figure i should just invest in myself. buy what i need and use my knowledge to make best creative work possible.
