Happy Inauguration Day!

You look to the President of a country as a leader and a great motivator. This President is thoughtful, prepared, inclusive, and non-complaining. He does not blame or finger-point; he is both realistic and optimistic. He is an excellent guide for all of us. Whether you are struggling to find your identity or you know exactly what you want to do, you will need courage - the courage to develop your abilities and to explore. If you are afraid, what will make you stronger this year? Start by looking for examples of courage and perseverance. Here are some other positive actions you can take:

1. Choose an elective course to improve skills that you have.
2. Try something totally new that will take you on a new path.
3. Develop more team skills by joining a club.
4. Join a volunteer committee.

In these endeavors you will apply the huge social skills of learning from each new person and you will gain a deeper understanding of your own goals and talents. Additionally, you may discover that your activities lead you in a wholly new direction. Start by celebrating with a local inauguration party tonight - you may meet someone new!
