We've Got To Start Somewhere



Pursuing your passions is a part of life that can really bring satisfaction.  It is something that encourages self fulfillment.  The thing about pursuing our passions, though, is that we’ve got to actually begin to do so.  Beginnings are important.  One of my favorite inspirational quotes is: “What would you attempt to do if you knew you could not fail?”  If you can answer that question without hesitation, that’s probably a passion worth pursuing.  As a student at UC Davis, I have begun to discover my true passions.  I have begun to pursue my true interests with an “if not now, then when?” attitude.  Taking that leap of faith is the hardest part, the rest will come to you.  Passions I have been pursuing include photography, design, landscape architecture, guiding white water rafting… all things that I could have easily told myself I might fail, and avoided those intimidating beginnings.
