Congratulations, students, you have almost made it through this school year.

When school is out for the summer, take time to focus on your next move, either your next grade level or your first year in college. Look as far in the future as you can.

Remember, this is your life. The decisions and choices you make will affect you and your future. Your choices do have consequences. And they will affect you first, so take this time to put your life on your priority list and work it.

Make the summer a great time for you. Do something good for others. Or get a job and that will keep your mind on good things.

If you have some ideas, put them into action. Otherwise it will be just an idea.

Always reach for higher heights. Whatever your goals and dreams are, they are waiting for you, but you have to put some action behind it.

Always remember that education is the key that will open any door in any direction that you want and choose to go in.

Remember, your thoughts, dreams and goals are yours and it is very important to fine the path for you.

Since education is your key, watch your manner of speech, dwell on the positive not the negative. Once this change takes place, your days will be more peaceful and confirming. Your attitude determines your altitude.

With the above being said, keep the school year in focus. Hold yourself responsible and to a higher standard than anyone expects of you, even yourself.

Morals, values, and attitude are the fundamental ingredients to success.

One’s mind, once strengthened by new ideas, new visions and aspirations, never regains its original dimensions. Once you act on one idea, you will be compelled to go on to the next.  

Always be curious, because knowledge does not or will not seek you, you must put forth the effort for yourself. And before you know it you will be doing the impossible.

Look back on your accomplishments and see what you have accomplished (the positive, not the negative) up to this point. Tell yourself, “I am powerful beyond all measures.”

The balance of this year will be even greater than before. From this point on release your fears, re-kindle your purpose and embrace the challenges in your life.

Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. said, “No work is insignificant. All labor that uplifts humanity has dignity and importance and should be undertaken with a great deal of excellence.”

So do not allow the summer time or free time to be in vain. Use it to your best ability.

The sacrifices you are making or about to make are immeasurable when you measure them up against lifetime. Once you get your education, it will be yours for a lifetime.
