Say "Yes!"

One week ago, I got an email from my professor telling me that he had an opportunity for me. 

I just thought it would be something small, like a visit with a local PR firm. Well, I was way off. He invited me to join 14 other Public Relations students to attend the national conference for Public Relations students across the U.S. 

I was speechless. I had been waiting for something to tell me that I was worth it. This was the moment.

This isn't just a post about me bragging, I promise. There is a reason I'm telling this story.

Say "yes" to opportunities. This is a very extreme example, but I'm glad I said "yes."

Although I was nervous and I felt like my hands were going to fall off, I made it to Atlanta, the home of the conference. I have already made connections with the other students on the trip. 

I'm happy. This is my time to do something I'm passionate about. Do something once a day that scares you.
