My Credo - by Robert Oliver

I believe that anyone can achieve their dreams, if you work hard enough

                This statement is something that I truly do believe at this juncture in my life. I am working towards my goal of video editing at the ripe old age of 45. It’s something that I have always wanted to do as technology has become so advanced and I was able to realize that I didn’t have to be in Hollywood to do this! Oh, my dream of working on movies has been put to the side; I think editing commercials and product videos does have a chance to be real.  

                I put my dreams away years ago and kept them locked in a vault way back in my mind. I went to work. I had to earn a paycheck like everyone else. A few years ago, I was able to unlock that box, and start working towards that dream again. I do think that anyone can achieve their dream, but you must work towards that goal in steps. It has to be realistic, and others may try to steer you away, so be diligent everyday! Life is hard, but that doesn’t mean that you have to give up on what you truly want to do. If you can dream it, you can do it!

                My Kids see me working hard, going to college, and I try everyday to help them towards their dream. Some of them still do not have an idea about that yet, but it’s up to me to help them cultivate that dream. That’s my job. And I’m glad that I am here to help them get started with their dreams.
