Dream Seeker


To be a motivational speaker…

I am a dream seeker.

I seek to uplift, positively uplift hearts and minds.

I want to help people unbind their limitations,

Encouraging them that better days have no expiration-dates.

 

Being a motivational speaker will transform my life,

As I will be positively transforming the lives of other’s on a day to day basis.

There so many different places, faces, and ethnicities to see,

Every person has a different history.

In order for me to understand various situations,

There is much I need to learn through a Bachelor’s Degree of Psychology in my education.

Being a counselor, writer and motivational speaker are my destination.

I will pursue my Graduate Degree in Counseling,

As I counsel people through my gifts….

Yet, along this journey I realize that I will need a lift.

 

I will attend college in Chicago to establish a platform for myself.

Yet I know that living in Chicago requires a decent portion of wealth.

I am not wealthy in money,

But I am wealthy in determination.

I hope that my gifts will get the right person’s attention.

I need help paying for my tuition, room and board.

I have little support financially,

Little that I can afford.

 

I do have the support of some family and close friends.

They support me in my dreams,

Being with me from the being, middle and I hope they see a victorious end.

 

I plan on becoming a well-known counselor, writer, motivational speaker.

I am an ambitious dream seeker.

An education and publishing my first book will give me a start to my dream job.

I hope to be known as a humanitarian,

Today, every day and even after I see the face of God.
