                           “This I Believe, Good Outcomes Take Time” I believe that good outcomes take time. Do you believe this? I believe this because in my 8th grade year, I tried out for high school cheerleading and didn’t make it. I decided that I will try out again next year. When I was going to tryout I was really nervous, but I was also excited. I tried out and made it!  Each and every morning I want to drink coffee or sweet tea and go outside and watch the sunset.Going outside and watching the sunset would motivate me to make sure I pay attention to the sky and be excited throughout the day.

  Dear 8th Grade Paisley, I know you just tried out for high school cheer. I know it is sad to not make it. Even if you didn’t make it, don’t let that stop you. I know you want to give up, but don’t. I know you enjoy cheer and are sad you didn’t make it.  To overcome this, try harder next year. Also start practicing way early. The life lessons you will learn are to never give up. Also that success takes time, you may not win on the first try. Trust me, I was sad at first, but I remembered there is always next year. I believe that you will make it next year. You got this, just try your best. Trust me, I for sure know you will make it, I promise. Sincerely, Paisley
