EDITORIAL: Get started this holiday

Do you ever have those days where you just do not want to wake up, and do not feel like doing anything?We always have times when we are lazy and want to do nothing all day, but this should not stop us from wanting to work hard towards fulfilling our dreams for the future. There are some of us who want to take shortcuts, do nothing and yet achieve everything. This is a very cancerous mentality to have. As teens we should be aware that we are at a time of our finest potential. We have the best years to utilize our energy, to better our future and that of our peers. This is the time to work hard at school, by reading so that we can achieve the best grades so as to pursue the careers we dream of. It is easy to become comfortable in your position, but becoming comfortable means becoming less passionate about your dreams and desires; it means holding back and accepting your current circumstances and giving up on your goals. If you choose to be lazy, laziness will spread to all areas of your life. Laziness makes all your dreams distant and impossible. Today’s lesson is that if you live a careless life with laziness and no determination, you need to re-evaluate your lifestyle. Instead of thinking of the easiest way to get around responsibility, you should be thinking of how best you can use your talents and skills to achieve the tasks ahead of you. Get started this holiday and see what might come out of your hard work. Ends
