Exquisite desire is what it takes to overcome the obstacles that get in the way of our goals of living a successful life. You lie in bed at night before you fall asleep wondering what the next day, month, or year will bring. You may be in high school wondering what career you should pursue, or a college student wondering what the future holds for you.  There are a hundred different obstacles and loops to jump through to get to that next step. However, there is a light at the end of the tunnel, and you can get there.  Filing the FAFSA is just another one of those obstacles you must overcome in order to prepare for your financial needs of attending college, and getting the best experiences that college has to offer. It takes some action on your part to talk to your parents or guardians about the importance of tracking down financial aid, and that you need their help. If your parents have questions and seek answers and want to seek answers, you can direct them to your college advisors and counselors Don’t be afraid to have your mom and dad come in and talk to your counselors about financial aid for college. Your counselors and advisors are a good resource and can help you with completing your FAFSA requirements. Remember there is always someone to turn to for assistance on completing the FAFSA.
