"My Plan": Best Work of Alexandria Mendiola Sr.A

To tell you the truth, I am still uncertain of what I want to be. I am still unsure of which path I want to take, and what I really want to do for a living. I have no definite goal when it comes to these things, but I am not at all worried by this. Yes, I am a senior in high school, and I am expected to have even a bit of an idea of what I want to be taking up, but I’ll admit, I don’t.

Truth is, the only thing I see when I envision myself in the future is just one big haze. I don’t have a plan yet. I don’t have a clear-cut course that I picture myself taking.



The only thing I am sure of is my plan to succeed.



You may be wondering how I could even think about succeeding when I don’t have a plan to pursue, or a dream to chase. But let me tell you, if there’s one thing I’m confident of, it’s that I know I am very versatile. If I end up liking a task given to me, I become somewhat a perfectionist. I do not quit on a project until it has reached my standards. Actually, I do not quit at all. I literally am willing to bend over backwards to get the desired output of something –but that’s if I like what I do.

I am also very committed and I tend to be creative with my work. I am what you call an imaginative character. I perceive things differently... originally perharps? I get random inklings here and there and I have turned these ideas into something greater than just a mere thought floating about in my head.



It took Scott Neeson a great deal of years to recognize that he wasn’t meant to be the president of Fox or take up an exceptional role in Sony Pictures Entertainment. It took him almost half his life to realize that God was calling him not to produce all these big-time movies, although he was brilliant at it, but to help children, to sell all his material goods and start the CCF.



What I am trying to say is that you don’t need to feel troubled just because you still haven’t heard your calling, because you still haven’t found your vocation. God has a great plan for each of us. He may decide to let us know by the time we’re five, twenty or eighty two. If we just open up our hearts and let Him, He would definitely take our hands and guide us throughout this plan. We just have to trust Him, and trust ourselves.
