Overtime

*Currently listening to one of my favorite motivation songs: Ace Hood - Overtime (some explicit language. Listen to at your own expense. If you would like to listen while reading this, I think it ties in well. If not, you can still read this of course! (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jf_L9TImDUs)

I'm sitting back right now pondering on how this past year has been. My oh my was it the most stressful, exhausting, jaw-dropping, pain-making roller-coaster I have ever had to endure. From problems at school, to personal problems with friends and family, from personal problems with myself. I was in so deep of a bad slump, I never thought I would see the light..... but I did.

Now I am on a nice balance, quiet, stress-free and comforting elevator. I have my own place, I have a great job, I'm growing and maturing more as a person every day, I am becoming better in my careers and most of all I AM STRESS-FREE!

Preparing for the 3rd year of college, it seems like this is the year that will truly define who I am. Who is Kenon Thompson? The guy who went from being okay, to being in a bad slump, to now being on top of his game. How will he react with this new high? Will he ever have to encounter another bad slump? What is in store for Kenon if he plays his cards right? What makes him different from the others in today's society? How will the experiences Kenon has been through affect him as a man?

In order for me to stay on a good balance beam and never hit another bad slump like that, I know the one thing I have to do. Put in overtime!
