MBA preparation has me OPEN! I've been reflecting on my life, what I want to accomplish short term by 30 long term by 45 and what I want to do when I retire at 60, God willing. What I realized throughout this process and writing my essays for the MLT MBA Prep Program is that "I just wanna be successful" in my best Trey Songz impersonation. Truthfully, I just wanna be happy. God, family, and work in that order! This has been a process for me as if I had to choose between a career or family I would choose family. Although, I do believe you can have both it just takes a large sacrifice. At 25, my sacrifice is career because I don't have a family of my own and if I did, I would make it work with many sacrifices. I know how an MBA will enhance my career, but it makes me realize that I really want a family. I guess the urge of settling down does happen when you turn a certain age; kids become more cute, seeing couples show PDA makes you cringe, and achieving that American dream of white picket fence with 2 1/2 children seems further away. Conversely, I am realistic in my expectations on what I have planned with my life. I know that what God has for me is for me. I'm just reflecting and my feelings have never been more clear about what I want. I am on this journey to become a better me through he who guides my steps. I'm waiting patiently on God and in the mean time I'm working on me. These are my MBA preparation reflections.
Keep the Faith!
Until next time,
