Sep 5, 2018 · 3 min read

I am already so overworked. I do not have time right now.

I am saving money for my dream vacation.

I am already doing so well in my job.

I just graduated from the college. Enough of learning.

Excuses! Excuses and more excuses. They never seem to have an end. We dream of achieving so much, but little do we actually do about it. It becomes a never-ending cycle. Just as we grow old, our willingness to learn diminishes and dies. In this fast-paced world, we see so many new technologies coming up daily, so we either want to learn a new skill or continue upgrading our existing skill set. But we all have varied living conditions. This can cause hindrance in our learning process and learning should never stop. Learning has no age and time limitation. Learning is even boundless to location nowadays. So all we now have left are our excuses. Udacity has seen and highlighted several success stories that have set examples for aspiring learners. They have taught us to take charge of our lives no matter what life has to offer us. Some things in our lives happen involuntarily, but some are under our control. Learning is one of them. Our future is in our hands so it is up to us to either make it or break it.

So put a hold to all your apprehensions and set an eye on your goal. Be it that Machine Learning Nanodegree program you were so willing to do but could not due to your university curriculum or any other reason. In order to move further and succeed in life, these inhibitions need to come to an end. Self-growth is key for us to live fulfilling lives and to have a successful career, so one needs to understand its importance. At times, self-growth might ask you to make an investment. But remember you’re not making this investment for anyone else but for your own benefit. This little investment takes you a long way from where you begin.

Udacity has helped several learners successfully revive or begin their learning journeys. We have immense pleasure in creating success stories. But this long path to success begins with you. Like it is popularly said:

‘You are the master of your own fate’

And we at Udacity acknowledge this principle. Success is determined when you buckle up and take charge of your life. This month we highlight some of our successful Nanodegree graduates who have overcome challenging life conditions and carried on with their respective careers. What we learn is an important lesson in life. The lesson of lifelong learning that can be applied to anything that life throws our way.

What makes #TakeCharge even more fun is the surprises you’ll win along the way. So hurry up! Enroll in your favorite Nanodegree program today and save up to 50%! What’s more? Win an Amazon Echo Dot on graduation. So what are you waiting for?
