What's yours? Something you are proud of yourself for doing or getting?
For me I think it would be packing up everything and quitting my job and moving abroad to try a new career(teaching)
Also getting my driving licence, not just the fact that I got it but the determination needed to keep trying and not give up.
I did it 9 times before I passed  |

That, having a spread in the upcoming Cosmopolitan, leaving everything behind, supporting myself after being left in the cold by my father, and earning the rank of Eagle Scout, all Eagle palms, and being a Brotherhood member of the Order of the Arrow. |

Dang... I don't really have any achievements. I was a JASSO Scholarship recipient?
Gotta start accomplishing things. I'm almost 23. God : ( |

Sobriety: for me, this has been my greatest achievement.
And, although I have done many other wonderful things, including having a wonderful job that others envy, having a son who is a highly successful business person back home; myself having an advanced degree and gaining peer recognition for fiction I published in the '90's; being published repeatedly in academia and also having a recurring, albeit small, royalty income from music I published in the '80's, for me, staying sober is tantamount to everything.
I just passed the 18 hour mark. |

No can do, look for the names in the College Tournament a few years back and I think you can figure it out. |
