Sample Solution

    I really enjoyed the Strayer University video, "The Driven." It was inspiring to see the stories of so many different people who have overcome challenges to achieve their academic goals. I found the stories of the following speakers to be particularly relatable to my own academic journey:

• Michael, the former NFL player who turned to education after his playing career ended. I can relate to Michael's experience of feeling lost and uncertain after his career ended. I also admire his courage to take a risk and pursue a new path.
• Nadia, the refugee who came to the United States with nothing and built a new life for herself through education. I can relate to Nadia's experience of being an outsider and having to overcome obstacles. I also admire her strength and determination to succeed.

The stories of these speakers inspired me in a number of ways. First, they showed me that it is possible to achieve your dreams, no matter what your circumstances. Second, they gave me the courage to take risks and pursue my own goals. Third, they reminded me that I am not alone in my journey. Staying Motivated I stay motivated to complete my degree by focusing on my goals and reminding myself why I am doing this. I also find it helpful to set small goals and celebrate my progress along the way. Additionally, I find it helpful to connect with other students who are also working towards their degrees. Responding to Another Student's Discussion Post I agree with you that the stories in "The Driven" are inspiring. They show us that it is possible to achieve our dreams, no matter what our circumstances. I also agree that the speakers in the video provide valuable insights into how to stay motivated. I think one of the most important things to remember is that everyone's journey is different. There is no one right way to achieve your goals. What works for one person may not work for another. The important thing is to find what works for you and to keep moving forward. I also think it is important to have a support system. Having people who believe in you and who can help you through the tough times is essential. If you don't have a support system, I encourage you to build one. There are many resources available to help you connect with other students, mentors, and friends who can support you on your journey.
