Attitude

    It is the time of the year and semester when your attitude becomes super important. The person with the more focused and positive attitude tends to exceed right now. I am saying this because I have struggled with my attitude until recently, and it can affect everything you are trying to do in life. If you let one thing bug you throughout an entire day, you will not have a successful day. 

    I had struggled the first couple of weeks of the semester with my attitude. I was being negative and letting one bad situation bother me for a whole entire day, which is not good. It wasn't until recently, and that changed. I had an extended talk with my coach about attitude and demeanor and it changed my whole outlook on life. First, he told me to start planning out my weeks and writing down things I am thankful for, and what to improve on that week. This may sound little, but it has helped an incredible amount. Being a captain of the basketball team, I can't afford to have a bad attitude and body language. When I do this, it can rub off on the whole entire team. Showing up each day with a positive attitude and greeting everyone, has changed everything for myself and the team. 

    I am writing this blog because I am certain there is someone out there struggling with their attitude and staying positive. If you are, start out with something small that can help and then work bigger and better. Start writing down a to-do list for your days and write down what you are thankful for. I am always thankful for my health, family, and friends! Keep your head up and keep digging!

Marketing Campaigns

    We can use many things in the social media world to our advantage, including social media marketing campaigns. In short, it is a campaign used to target an audience and advance your business and company in the long-run. It can also come from actions that can lead to influencers or audience to certain types of things. These campaigns can be most affective just like a lot of other things and that is by setting your goals and audience before you start your campaign.      You need to know where you want your campaign located at and what you want it to do. For example, social media is the main spot but you can also have it in other spots that can reach awareness also. Having your target audience is important, but you also want to know what the people in your target audience are interested with. For example, the social media apps that they are most active on, older people are more active on Facebook versus Snapchat, so it is important to know that. Also, setting a...

College Football Playoffs

     In 2014, college football finally introduced the idea we had been waiting on, The College Football Playoffs. This meant that instead of only two teams getting a chance at the national championship, it would know be four teams. Everyone that enjoys college football was very happy when this was announced.       The first year it was introduced, the final four teams happened to be Ohio State, Oregon, Alabama, and Florida State. In the first round, Oregon defeated Florida State and Ohio State defeated Alabama in an instant classic. This meant it would end up being Oregon versus Ohio State in the championship game. Ohio State went on to defeat Oregon by a score of 42-20 and celebrated winning the first ever college football national championship. I still remember Ohio State winning this game and I lost my mind. I thought it was awesome to see Ohio State win the national championship, but especially with it being the first year of the playoffs. ] ...

Back on Campus

    After a much needed time off from athletics and academics, it is great to be back on campus. I was very thrilled to go home for a couple of long days. I wasn't only happy to go home because it was first time home in a month, but also because it will be last time home till Thanksgiving. We start our first week of practice this Friday and once that starts it is almost impossible to go home, so I made sure to enjoy my break.             I have always cherished my time I get when I am back home because you never know what can happen and when it could be your last time. That sounds very straight-forward but is the reality of life. As I stated, we start our basketball season this week and I am beyond focused and ready to start my third year on the basketball court. I am especially excited this year because I know the potential this team has this season especially since we are a lot older and more experienced now.      In the...
