Yesterday I was playing in some pick up games down at George Washington University. I got asked a few times if I went to Yale because my BYU shirt looks like Yale logo. I laughed and joked about it with David and he said, "You could've gone to Yale." And I said, "Yeah if I redid my life and had a GPA worth mentioning..." and some more that sounds awfully depressing to write. Basically if I would've have cared more and worked. At all. I can't tell if this discussion is exciting or depressing. How cool is it that if I wanted to do something like that I could have?! I have options in life. Or how sad is that, that I wasted so much time?
I really am happy where I am now but I can't help but think....
I am impressed with people that display a lot of discipline and look at the big picture, more-than-the-coming-week picture and do well in school or in a skill. We went for a walk passed the White House last night and I again my thoughts went that direction. For the most part those people that own businesses or live in the White House are just people that have worked really hard.
