Whether you're 5 years out of school or 50, speaking at your alma mater is always an honor. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I had that privilege today. Thank you so much #Breck business club for the opportunity to speak to you!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Struggling with your college essay? You're not alo

Struggling with your college essay? You're not alone! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
In school, we drill students on how to prove a thesis, assigning countless essays. Then on the Common App, we send you blindly into "personal statement" territory with little experience and no real guidance.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
That's why I've put together a helpful, step-by-step formula for the Common App essay. Using examples from my own application, it's enormously helpful in demystifying where to begin!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

When I was applying for college, the essay hung over my head more than anything else. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
In a few short pages, I was expected to make myself a person in the eyes of the admissions officers. Because let's be honest: millions of other people have taken the same classes, participated in the same sports, and volunteered at the same types of places.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I'm still enormously proud of that final essay, and I'd love nothing more than to help *you* create your best writing, too. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
With applications due around the corner, I'm adding one-to-one tutoring for college admissions essays to Vocabbett's services. Space is limited, so if you think you might need a little help, be sure to book a #free consultation ASAP!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

While researching the creative process of bestsell

While researching the creative process of bestselling author Barbara Mertz (a.k.a. #ElizabethPeters), ONE THING stuck with me more than anything else. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
*This was a woman who LOVED what she did.* ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
And, honestly, I think that sense of fun and enjoyment will carry you further than any technical tips!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
In episode 58 of the Vocabbett #podcast, I share some more notes and quotes from Barbara Mertz. You can listen by clicking the link below (and in bio), or by tuning in on your favorite podcast player!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Love the catchy quote, but it's fine to motivated by/inspired by others!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
TBH, most of the things I'm proudest of in life were inspired by various role models (usually fictional 😂)⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
As long as you've got GOOD sources of inspiration - ones that make you feel BETTER about yourself and your life - there's nothing wrong with a role model or two. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Personally, I prefer my role models to be fictional (like #VickyBliss and #AmeliaPeabody). ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Nothing against real people, but if you hold someone to a high standard, they're inevitably going to fall short, and then it leaves you in an awkward position. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Whether you're totally self-motivated, or whether you've got a role model or two, go out there and make it happen! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
