Taking Action Revision 1

A great example of me taking action is persuing this Masters program. Often people talk about getting a Masters and how great it would be and what it would do for their career, but it isn't often when you actually meet someone who actually does and finishes. I have only known a few to do it.
I surprised my mom last Mother's Day with my acceptance letter that I would be starting this. I wanted to surprise her and it was a big surprise indeed! Little did she know that I had been researching schools for 4 months.
I was so excited to tell everyone and I did. Now, I only have three classes left. Just last week, I saw a friend at the gym and I told him how far I was in the program, he couldn't believe it. He said to me, "gosh Bonnie, I remember when you told me you were just starting it. I can't believe you actually stuck with it and did it." "You know, he said, so many people I know say they are going to do things and they never do them. It is so nice to know that you set a goal and took action on achieving it." "Taking action is the key to accomplishing your dreams!"
