BSB - Turning Point Story

This assignment was very personal for me because I had to make a keynote presentation about a turning point in my life. My story was about my life long dream of playing professional sports and how it all ended one day in high school. I broke my ankle badly in a game and had to get surgery on it, which caused my level of play to drop dramatically when I returned from the injury. I learned two really valuable lessons from this time in my life. I learned that I could adapt to a situation with out skipping a step. I took the competitive nature and passion of sports and turned it into a passion for learning. This inevitably helped me to come to Full Sail where I found my true calling. I also learned that a person should never put so much devotion into one aspect of their life. It is good to be passionate about something but have a backup plan or a paralleled passion so that it is easy to transition if one of them doesn’t work out.
