Humans of CU
“I didn’t always have the motivation I have now. I developed the motivation I have through wanting to get better for my sports. I want to be the best and try to reach my full potential. I would always watch motivation videos which started in high school and now that I am a little older I don’t look to videos for motivation, it comes from inside now and the hunger to be better than I was yesterday. Motivation has impacted my life so much to where it is just a part of who I am now, it has helped me in sports, in my academics and in my personal life. It makes me a better person all around. People know that I am a very motivated person and they know I always go 100% in everything I do.”
