Involvment and Confidence

Currently, I am at the point where in my major, I am invovled in a great number of events and projects. Yet the realization of what I am doing is not there. This past week, I have learned that it is great to do extraordinary things, but one must realize what exactly it is being done. For example, this past week, I went Lobbying to my Senator about food aid and supporting PEPFAR and did not realize the greatness behind Lobbying. Typically, I look at a situation, and assume that there are another thousand college students across the nation competing for the same job as myself who are more passionate about topics like HIV/AIDS and global solidarity. In fact, in my head, that thousand are ten times better. The truth of the matter, maybe there are thousands of competators in across the nation who are more passionate about a topic than myself, but maybe there are millions who are not. The fact, in order to think multimedia, one must have the cofidence in thinking what they are doing is amazing and one-of-a-kind. How else would someone figure out that the message was great unless it was publicised in confidence. To become multimedia it is important to have confidence, determination, but at the same time continue to be humble. Thinking multimedia is about realizing what is being done and being the best you can while remaining true to yourself.
