    Our constitutional liberties referencing property rights have faded over the years by virtue of the over-reach of the federal government by their collusions and conspiracies among the different branches; thereby, infringing on the rights of individuals and the states. For example, the Constitution does not grant the national government jurisdiction over education, housing, agriculture, or energy; however, they have gotten around this by creating cabinet/committee level status (e.g., HUD, FTC, FDA, OSHA, SEC, EPA) in D.C. by Congress, administered by the executive branch with the court?s approval. James Madison captured the essence of federalism in The Federalist No. 45. He condemned the aggregation of all powers (legislative, executive, and judicial) in the same hands; whether of one, few, or the majority; whether hereditary, self-appointed or elected, may legitimatize the very definition of tyranny. James Madison, Property: The Founders Constitution, (Vol 1. Chap. 16. Document 23. 29 March 1792).

Without my motivation there will be no desire to finish and accomplish what is really important and meaningful in life, and that is not what I want. A good example I keep in my mind to never repeat is senior year and the lack of motivation I had to finish up my last year. I ended with two C’s and that is very disappointing for me. Keeping this in mind will allow me to not lose motivation and keep thinking of the positive outcome because motivation is everything!
