About my Blog

I am not by any means an expert on the game of life, but I do understand that there are strategies one must have in place in order to be successful to win. Success is not placed in your hands, but in your reach. When you reach for something, you are making a conscience decision that you want it. Reaching Your Career Dreams is all about the choices, information, and resources that brings us either closer or away from our career dreams. The reason why this is not just a life coaching or career coaching blog is that both are so intricately intertwined. There is so much to cover. Will you join me on this journey?

Life's Lemons

Life’s Lemons
By Shemeka Peters

When Life throws you lemons, make lemonade.
Stay as cool as ice and sweet as sugar.
Do not let your cup get half-empty,
nevertheless, remain overflowing until it makes your enemies
thirsty.
Take a drink from the creations you have made.
Leave nothing behind but
drip drops to show that you have
left a mark in the world.


I took a popular quote in the first sentence, and gave it more thought, which inspired me to write the poem. As we reach towards our career dreams, there would be many obstacles that come our way. It is our choice, however, to respond in the way we want to.

Aspire. Create. Develop.
