The business field is the most competitive line of work. To be a business owner, in the advertising or marketing department you need motive, drive, and the will to accomplish your goals. I have this. I can work hard and achieve anything I set my mind to. Many people can attest for saying I have a good work ethic and the personality made for this. I will graduate college. By the end of my senior year, I would have already finished a full year of college, and got all of my high school credits. My goal in life is to manage or own a business and watch something grow. To see others and myself succeed. I struggle to make this dream a reality due to a lack of money. Fearing if I don’t have enough money for a meal isn’t a rare feeling for me. But I would like to get to a point in life where I don’t have to feel that way. Investing in me wouldn’t be regretful.
