I Think I Can

You've all heard about the little engine that could. If not, let me give you a brief overview.

When the little engine that helps a big engine pull a huge load that the other big engines wouldn't help with. He beings helping by saying, "I think I can." As he gets to a large hill he moves slower, but he still keeps saying, "I think I can!" Each time he repeats this phrase it's drawn out and stressed, but he finally makes it to the top. While he is going down the decline he shouts, "I thought I could!"

When I hear this story I reflect on my life and where I'm at. Right now I'm working on finishing my fourth semester of college. I have 15 credits, and I work at the local grocery store, Broulim's. Sometimes I get overwhelmed with staying on top of everything... there's just not enough time!

Sadly, this is SO true! And it doesn't even involve everything that you need to do!

I need to force myself to be like the little engine that could. I need to constantly tell myself, "I think I can!" Sometimes, things just go crazy and don't work out, but the more positive I am, the better things work out. So just keep telling yourself that you can, and you'll be right!
