Perfect Timing: A Personal Connection to the Grind

As an individual, my final project was to think about the song of the Perfect Timing by Shedeur Sanders and its relationship with my life. Rather than upload a video or a site, this time I will just present a written review here, so you could read your way further into my thoughts and how this song made me ponder about my personal experiences.

This song does not refer only to football or success, it represents the attitude and the process of struggling to achieve something when everyone is not sure about you yet, but you have to press on, you have to keep on pushing, you have to be patient and hold back, that is what this song is about. I related to that message. One of the lines that I liked was:

They was on top of me, I did not trip, I continued working.

The lyrics brought me back to a period when I was not appreciated in school or a group assignment or even those cases where I was working on myself. I did not announce it like Sanders did either, I kept my head down and kept on track. It made me recall this song where there is actually no growth at all without a watcher and silence is considered a good force in itself.

In my brief letter, I delve into how this song summarizes the feelings of struggling in silence, being disciplined and having the hope that one will get his or her turn when he or she is ready. I want it to talk to a few of you like it spoke to me.

Comments are welcome (and particularly so, in case you have ever felt the same way): grinding and remaining low-key.
