Comments on: Is it Time to Reset Your Life? http://www.rosettathurman.com/2009/02/is-it-time-to-reset-your-life/ empowering a new generation of leaders Thu, 09 Feb 2012 21:15:29 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.2.1 By: JorgeRB http://www.rosettathurman.com/2009/02/is-it-time-to-reset-your-life/#comment-993 JorgeRB Fri, 06 Feb 2009 22:29:53 +0000 http://rosettathurman.com/blog/?p=952#comment-993 Thank you for such an inspiring and informative post. Having experienced the trials and tribulations of many immigrants to US, a life reset is certainly possible and the outcomes can be extremely satisfying. I have had family members leave their country of origin, leave their professional lives behind in order to pursue a better life in the US and completely reset their lives. In particular, one of my uncles held a degree, but upon arriving in the US he had to start from zero and though he had to work in areas that was not passionate about, he made sure that he continued to strive for his passions. Today, he is back working in what he loves. If we make the decision and keep our goals in sight, they are definitely attainable. Thank you for such an inspiring and informative post.

My mom dropped out of college after her first year, then went back in her late 30s to pursue her bachelor's then her master's degree. It was so inspiring to watch her push through. I agree that it's never too late! Thanks so much for sharing this story, Tai!

She graduated from college with a degree in textile design, is a phenomenal artist and a fantastic teacher. She's run a day care, worked in accounting, and is currently a social worker. How ever she has also decided to pursue her dream - she is now enrolled in Drexel's interior design grad program. It's amazing to see this once computer and tech phobe lady (she just got an answering machine in the last 5 years) pushing through autocad - Amazing. She definitely makes my list of Brilliant Women - it is never too late! Stay Brilliant! My aunt who is in her early 50′s was almost in the same situation as your aunt.
