Motivation Monday🙌

Hey everyone❤️ I hope that you are all okay and keeping safe🤗 Happy Monday😁 I cant believe its Monday again, the days are flying by. I also cant believe that its March already, time is going by so quick😩

Today's quote for motivational Monday is work hard, dream big, never give up. Anything in life worth having does not come easy. The best things in life are those we work hard for. When you work hard for the things you want in life, you feel so much better when you achieve them. It may be hard work getting to where you want to be but that's what makes succeeding in the end so rewarding. There will be so many times when you will be frustrated and you will feel like giving up but giving up is truly not worth it. When you feel like giving up, remember why you worked so hard to achieve those goals in the first place. When you want something badly all the hard days, sleepless nights working hard, stressful days meeting deadlines, long hours in work, exam pressure with extra study, hard training for jobs etc is all worth it in the end😁

I got expelled from secondary school for something so minor that I shouldn't have been expelled for. Many students who attended the school had done the maddest things time and time again but were never expelled. The principal and some of the staff members in the school I attended disliked me so it was to be expected that it would have happened at some point. The school I attended was very unfair, once they disliked you they gave you a hard time. I was expelled 5 months before my leaving cert during one of the worst times of my life as my childhood friend committed suicide a couple of days before I was expelled. Mentally I was in such a bad place and I felt like my life was falling apart. Everything was too much for me. When I first told my guidance counsellor that I wanted to study law, they doubted that I would get in and said I should look into something easier. I studied everyday for my leaving cert at home despite getting expelled. I worked sooo hard even though I felt like giving up so many times. I went and did my leaving cert in the school, did really well, went to college for 4 years to study Law, graduated, I'm currently doing an add on course in Criminology and Forensic Psychology for 10 weeks and I'm working full time saving up to do the Kings Inns next year to become a criminal lawyer😁 Between the situation with school, situations in college, home situations, situations with friendships, being in a toxic relationship where I was mentally drained and going through a global pandemic I have achieved so much and I never gave up. For that, I am so proud of myself. All the hard work and dedication was worth it because without it, I wouldn't be where I am today😁 There were so many times during those years where I felt like giving up but I wasn't going to let anything or anyone stand in the way of me achieving my goals✨

If someone tells you that you can't or won't achieve something, show them how its done🙌 You have all the power to make your future what you want it to be. With hard work, dedication and determination you can do anything you put your mind to😁

Never give up and always chase your dreams✨ I promise you all your hard work and every struggle you faced on the way will be soooo worth it❤️

Much Love Always,

Shannon💛
