Journal Entry: Michael James Olsen-09/30/2024-Success to Me

Journal Entry

Defining personal success has been a struggle for me because I was not really sure what it did mean to me literally,
After reading a book Sent in by Michael Santos, I have broadened my view on this statement thus spending a little more time reflecting so…

Success to me:
– Overcome obstacles found in prison life to get the maximum time credits for early release to getting home to family ASAP

– To have grown intellectually, spiritually, and have used the time served for my criminal behavior, professionally, coming out better than when I came in

– To have earned my G.E.D. and acquired any certificates in a higher learning field such as college, vocational training and or apprenticeships if possible

– To accomplish goals that detail a high aptitude

– To have acquired skills that can be utilized in the motivational speaking field I will be working in upon my release

– The successful publishing of my 1st book

This to me, defines my personal success
