    I'm happy I found this video. I'm currently a Junior in high school and I'm a student athlete and I have even other extracurricular activities. I play Basketball, Softball and Track and Field. And even on the side I'm in Orchestra and Law were we have trails and training throughout the year going up to state. And I just turned 17 and ready to get my own $ and save up. But it's seems as though it'll be too much managing :(, but this was insightful. Thank you.

    i’m a sophomore girl who just turned 15, and i live in california. i’m taking all honors classes plus AP world history. i’m in cross country and we’re expected to run every day, including the weekends. i’ve been eyeing a job at baskin robbins, and all i have to do now is apply. i’m SCARED for what my busy schedule is going to look like.

    i'm only age 14 and i do rowing. i am quite successful at the sport and last season was my first, i got gold medals in almost everything and because of my size i became a coxswain. the new season ahead i am in year 8 i have been put down for 6 training sessions a week, 3 for my age group and 3 for the age above me (i'm also told to stay back later on Saturdays for coxswain training). a Big priority for me is my grades although i find year 8 relatively easy i would like to keep my marks up but i would also like to keep my fitness and success in rowing up. this helped me immensely thank you!

      Catherine Kitchens I went to work when practice was over! So I would work like 6-10pm. It’s a lot of work and you have to be organized but it all works out if you’re committed to it working out!

    this makes me feel better about getting on top of things! the only thing I'm worried abt is how I have to miss a few practices before I change my schedule to accommodate sports, and then I feel like I'll be an inconvenience to my job by changing my schedule

    • @mayasblossom
      @mayasblossom  3 роки тому

      you should never feel like an inconvenience to your job, they don’t own you so you should feel free to change your schedule whenever you need to! even if you weren’t in school and/or playing sports, jobs would still have to accept that sometimes schedules change. you got this! :)

    • @mayasblossom

      Mainly Iso you just have to be committed to taking the time to make the time. It’s not impossible. I graduated with a 4.2 while playing sports, working, and attending school every single day! You just have to be committed to yourself and your cause.

      T C I would still mention that you play a sport so that when you do get your schedule, they’ll already know that you’ll need accommodations at work to fit that

    • @mayasblossom
      @mayasblossom  6 років тому +3

      Aaliyah Blackwell well, I think that you should talk to your dad about why he doesn’t believe you should do it. Maybe you guys can sit down and reason. If you truly are driven and focused, I believe you can do both. Plus, an interview is not a guaranteed job. So I would at least go through with the interview, explain you are a student athlete, and if they can’t work around that then maybe it’s not time to try to do all of that right now.
