After being a mediocre high school student (which was a joke), I couldn't see myself with another 4 years of college. I took 3 years off and worked in the insurance business. I needed some time off and was completely clueless as to what I wanted to do with my life.
When I decided to actually go to college on MY own terms, not out of obligation or duty, I actually thrived, graduated with honors, enjoyed it and even continued to upper grad.
It was a tough adjustment at first but because it was a decision that I had wholeheartedly made and wanted, I had the motivation to adjust quickly and really enjoy the whole experience.
