Saving young people from themselves

It's obvious to us that most young people don't take an interest in taking aside their own spending money and putting it aside for a later time in their life. Most young people this day in age are starting to get jobs earlier and earlier, and in this case they are obtaining money to do as they please with, like going out to eat or going to the movies or getting new things to put or their cars ect. But what they don't realize is that in these upcoming years they're going to be having to pay for college and the books and materials that go with it, along with if they're planning on buying/renting a house. And if so living away from home they're having to pay for food. It's going to be a huge change for most and for many a struggle. So the sooner we can get in the habit of saving and putting aside money, the better off we'll be. Because if you have a job now and are always able to take off and spend it how you want, that means that you also have the chance to set aside what could possible be what you depend on in the near future. As for your later years in life you may have a steady job and pay check, upon saying that, you should take the opportunity to take part in which I think is a great idea if you are financially stable, is to go by the Australians superannuation way of thinking by putting a percentage of your pay check away into your retirement account. Although many of you think I don't need you need to worry about this as of right now, you should absolutely start as soon as possible to be prepared for what to come in your future.

THE CROSSROADS BETWEEN SHOULD AND MUST

The crossroads between should and must have different paths in which you use to go about your life, but I feel as if their is a hidden middle path leading you through both using should and must. Many seem to go by should because it's easier and helps them get along better with others as they go about their daily routeen. But if you can find it in yourself to become a must, it will help you out in the long run guiding you through what is really true to you. If you go by must and are able to find others like you and can fit in with, then you have overcome what was being used before trying to fit in with others but not truly bring you. I'm currently more towards must, in which I am being myself around others and am fitting in no problem because they are just like me in various ways. But I see myself in the near future drifting towards should because I'll be going to a different school and will be on a different team, therefor will be having to adjust to new and different people. The way I see it, there is no right or wrong path. Whatever way you go, you can make it your own and be happy and successful in what you do.

LOOK AT MY BRAIN

            Although I don't have enough posts to show what I'm working on for my masterpiece, I still have a wide variety of information and resources to help and guide me to achieve my goal of becoming a water polo coach. I have been on a highly successful team the past four years and have achieved the highest possible awards to be given to an individual of a high school sports team athlete. I plan to use all of what I know to help individual(s) gain needed knowledge and skill sets to prosper in the sport and to prevail from other players and conquer opposing teams.

Resources 1

My first and best resource is playing and excelling in the sport the past four years and having coaches at my disposal to teach me more about what make a good coach since they're the coaches of the year in our division. The past month I was able to come and help at their practice teaching the younger goalies techniques and skills that will help them in the future, which gave me a better experience of coaching at a small level.
