To Be Taken Seriously


To be considered great at something, you need experience

To be considered smart about something, you need experience

To be considered successful with something, you need experience.

 

Why is it that for us students, to be taken seriously, we need experience?

Isn't our life enough experience to be able to go into this world

be ambassadors and change the world?

We are an unappreciated forgotten generation.

Among us could be the future President of The United States,

the next Oprah Winfrey,

the genius that cures cancer,

a future gold Olympian.

Yet we are seen as an unexperienced generation and not given a chance.

 

I see it different however;

To be considered great at something, you need dedication

To be considered smart about something, you need imagination

To be considered successful with something, you need passion.

 

Dedication, Imagination and Passion!
