BEING THE BEST THAT YOU CAN AND WERE BORN TO BE

One of the most eye-opening experiences for me was that of having everyone from judges to prison inmates ask me what I was doing in the position I was in at that time.  They couldn't understand why I had to resort to criminal activity when I could've been a lawyer or judge instead.

I brushed that off at first, but the more I heard it the more conscious I became of the fact that I was wasting my potential.  I was said to be intelligent but my actions weren't supporting that observation.

I reflect on this experience everyday and I am grateful for the opportunity to fulfill my potential and become an asset to society.  Never allow your mistakes and current circumstances to hinder you from being the best that you can and were born to be.  POWER UP!
