Determination

About four years ago the director of the place I work for presented a program at a mental health convention. After the program there are usually people that wait to speak to her. A man approached her and told her that he had always been interested in psychology but never pursued his dream. She told him to call her office and he could become a research assistant because then he would have experience to put on his resume when he applied for graduate programs. He was 40 years old and a cameraman for many top television programs. He began to come to the office once a week to do research and become her personal assistant. We all liked him and he became one of our work family. After being there for a year, he applied for graduate school and was accepted. He had saved enough money as a cameraman and photographer to quit his job, work per diem and go to school full time. I had not seen him in three years. Yesterday he walked in the office all dressed up in a suit and tie. He was interviewing for an internship. I would bet 100% he gets it.
