When I learned the Spanish word for succeed, I thought it was kind of ironic that the word exit is embedded in it. Like the universe was telling me that in order for me to make something of this life, I’d have to leave home, my neighborhood, my friends.
I do agree with this quote. I had to leave my home country just to find success in the US. I was able to finish school at BYU Hawaii. Part of leaving home, is that I took with me my family's high expectations. I need to study harder and smarter for me to be successful. I am also the first one in the family to graduate in a university. I learned how to hustle just to make my family proud of me.
