In life you have two choices; either be mundane and simple, or be creative and enthusiastic. Majoring in Finance, I always get the dreaded question “uh so you want to sit down all day in a cubicle and look at papers and crunch numbers?”. No my friends, for me theres much more to Finance than that. Even with other majors whether it be Accounting, Marketing, Biology, etc; YOU are the one who decides what you want to do.

Don’t let any corporate entity change your mind or make you lose focus on whats really important.

Word of Advice– Take 5-10 minutes a night and write out your most craziest ideas or tasks you want to accomplish. Either write it on a post-it-note and paste it in your room or grab a notebook. Do it for a week and just see what you come up with. I always had these wild ideas or business ventures but because I couldn’t see them on paper they were just a minute thought in my head. Once you see it written down physically, it becomes more approachable to execute.

I encourage you to set the bar high, no matter what you’re aiming for in this life. Invest your time and energy on getting what you want and doing what you believe in. Don’t waste your time and effort on things you don’t really want, but think you should have. Oprah once said “That is the lesson: You needed to dream a bigger dream for yourself”. Never succumb! Hold the biggest vision possible for your life and in good time it will come true.

Be creative! Be different! Be great! And most of all, be an EntreWolf!
