Success essay

Success is a big word and every time I think of it, being professional comes to my mind; I want to be an architect, a successful architect, which is my first thing in my bucket list. I want to graduate and have my diploma, that day I am going to be successful, I am going to be happy, I would be able to make the people I love proud of me, and after that moment I know more good things are going to come to my life such as my dreamed job, have an awesome family, a nice house, cool car, money in the bank, travel and have fun, etc, but before all this nice things I have to go to school, do homework and be constant, and never forget what I want to be and how far I want to get.
If I ever want to be successful I have to do a lot of work and sacrifice some fun and good things and I know it is going to take me a while and hard work but with effort and dedication I can accomplish what I want and what I need. Right now I think I am doing well; I am attending to college, I am working to afford whatever my needs and pay my bills. Sometimes it is really hard, I feel weak and lazy and I do not want to keep going, sometimes I think it would be easier if I just stop going to school and work some more hours. But deep down I know that is not the true, that would not take me to success, it is just a short cut which at the end is going to bring me nothing but disappointments, sadness and more work to do. I could just stop paying for school and buy a new car, or get a cooler cell phone, or have more time to go out with my friends or simply do not have to worry about essays, math homework, reading boring books or anything related to school, but that is not going to give me a good future, that is not going to make my family proud, that is not going to make me happy or give me the material things I want in my life.
We all have to make sacrifices and work hard if we want to be big and successful, if we want to get somewhere along our lives, and that is exactly what I am doing right now. My mom always says to me that whatever I do I cannot stop studying because that would get me far. Right now all I can do is go to college, take the classes I need to get my two year degree, do my homework, do not miss class unnecessarily, get good grades and then transfer to a four year college and once I am there just keep going, keep doing the same, study, study, study, sacrifice some things, and do not forget what my mom tells me.
