Are You Listening?

That's right.  It's Monday.  A fresh start to a new week.

Stop playing the blame-game.  Stop making up reasons why you can't do a project, or pretending that something isn't happening.  Stop making excuses - for why your homework isn't finished; or why you didn't study for a test; or why you can't apply for that job; or why something isn't going the way you think it should. Stop thinking that you should (or will) always get a second, third, or fourth chance.

Start taking the initiative.  Start making choices and sticking with them.  Start accepting responsibilities as they come, and acting your age with quiet dignity.  Start something fun and new today.  Start being happy for Mondays, since it means you have another day of life.  Start your homework now, so that you have free time later.  Start your resume now, so that you are ready to accept a new job later. 

It's now or never.  So stop making excuses and start making choices.
