Makes you think...

I read an article on espn.com today that made me think. And those of you who're thinking, "Jesus, another sports entry," don't worry, it's not. What it said was that people who don't try their best are afraid of failure. It seems sort of counter-intuitive at first, but think allow me to elaborate. When we really work hard on something, be it school

I can definitely relate to this. I've become really self-sufficient once my college life started. It's scary because of all the responsibilities I have, and I'm scared of failing everyday. I don't know though, because I kind of use that fear to push me into being better.

Especially at school. At art school, things can get really competitive. I'm not afraid of failing there. In fact I know I'm damn good. It's the people that are chasing right behind me, clawing right at my feet for the spot of the better designer. Letting people pass me up is like failing. And it's what drives me to kick their asses.

I really don't know where I'm going with this, but I know that I'm scared to fail, and I turn it around to motivate me.
