Giving Up Connection l

So around 8th grade, I just kinda felt like not trying at school. For whatever reason, I felt no compelling reason to attempt anything. I didn't see that point. Eventually some of my teachers saw what was going on and consulted with me. They made me see the wrong in what I was doing, and corrected it. Same with my parents, they set me on the right path from where I was going. After that I realized the value in doing well at school and have kept that mentality ever since. It's made me a better student.
