Hey you! Yeah, you - the one who's been crushing it all week long. Give yourself a round of applause, because it's FRIDAY! 🎉

Now, I know the grind can get tough sometimes, but hear me out. Those moments of discomfort, the ones that make you want to hide under the covers? That's where the magic happens, my friend.

It's easy to seek comfort in the familiar, but true growth comes when we step outside our cozy bubbles. So this weekend, I challenge you to lean into the uncomfort a little. Try something new, have that tough conversation, or simply take a moment to reflect on how far you've come.

Because let me tell you, on the other side of that uncomfort is a whole world of possibilities waiting to be explored.

Now get out there and show the world what you're made of! #FridayFeels #GrowthMindset

Admissions Essay Pitfalls! OMG! Of all the lessons we teach in Essay Camp, this may be among THE MOST IMPORTANT!

The six common themes that would land you in a pitfall are:

⚠️ Sports

⚠️ Travel

⚠️ Community service

⚠️ People

⚠️ Competition

⚠️ Life challenges.

When writing about any of the six topics, it is much harder to make yourself the star of the essay! Students will often write about how many wins they earned as the star basketball player or how devastating it was to lose a parent. That is the OPPOSITE of what makes those topics interesting and engaging!
