Do you believe that everyone has there moment? A time when you are completely in your element, when all of the peices around you fit perfectly into the sphere that is your life. I believe that for most people this moment comes at one of three times.
There are the people who will never do better than there High School days, perhaps they were a star athlete, the most popular kid in school, or dating the most popular person in there school.
Then there are the people who peak in college, University life being vastly different from high school, its just easier for some people to make friends in this enviroment and to come into there own. For the person who peaks in high school, University can be too much for them. They aren't the Person that they once were, they are a much smaller figure on the scale of things, and that is disturbing to them.
Lastly there are the people who completely by-pass the first two and they never quite find there niche. These are the people who peak during there professional careers. However by this point they have become slightly socially awkward, but that is of less significance because they are respected at the up-most levels of there professions. (I.E. Bill Gates)
