I visited the Mr. Money Mustache site and did some exploring through some of his posts. Even though he is known for his financial advising posts, I came upon a post about the benefits of science. Science has always interested me because it describes many things in our life such as why it rains, why fossil fuels are bad for the climate, how we hear things, etc. So reading this post was very intriguing. Throughout the post, he tells all the benefits of using science. He believes it allows us to understand so much and to be responsible so everyone can live better lives. I found this useful because there are ways where I can be more efficient in my life in order to live a better life. If I start driving less, I will not hurt the climate as much and also save money on gas. So this post relates to his interest in money because science has saved people money. According to MMM, "Science is the way you get knowledge – nothing more, and nothing less." The lesson I learned from this is to be knowledgeable and not ignorant.
Part Two:
I have a huge interest in professional basketball. Ever since I was little I have been playing basketball and watching it on TV. It is one of my few hobbies and it's what I do in my free time to this day. With schoolwork and work, basketball is my relief from being busy all the time. If you were to tell me to relax for the day, I would probably watch and play basketball. It is my passion. Right now, the NBA playoffs are underway which is my favorite time of the year. The source at the bottom is probably pretty useless if you are not interested in basketball. But having something that you love to do is very important in life. Basketball is that something for me. It's something that takes my mind off of all the stressful things in life. Therefore, I encourage you to follow your passion and to take a step back. We are all college students and life is flying by. We should take some time and relax and enjoy what we love now while we are young whether it's sports, reading, or spending time with friends and family.

I always enjoyed the NFL app you can get free on your phone that pretty much serves you in the similar way that this does. It gives you highlights and stats about your favorite teams, and also, what win and loses of other teams that may help your team advance or drop down in the season. If you're an avid football spectator like myself, I would recommend looking up this app on your phone.
ReplyDeleteI think it's really great that you have found something to be passionate about in life for most of us we are still struggling to find it so to see your enthusiasm is very uplifting
