You can do anything

Letters

IF you think you can do it, you are right.
If you think you cannot do it, you are right also.
Any endeavour in life is accomplishable.
If you are a student studying in various schools throughout the country, take this from me: Our dreams never give up on us, we give up on our dreams.
Education is not the key to success.
Most of you will be surprised as you’ve always thought success comes from education.
The key to success is your personal determination to accomplish something in life.
There are many successful people out there who do not know how to read and write.
The point I am getting across is: What do you really want to accomplish in your life?
Before I get to the core of this question, let me tell you that the richest place on Earth is the cemetery.
This is because the graveyard is full of talents that were never used, knowledge that was wasted, ideas that were never accomplished, potential that was never practised, books that were never written, songs that were written but were never sung, and the list of wasted greatness of individuals goes on.
There are two types of people living today.
One type just lives to survive while the other type chooses to be successful.
So where do you as an individual stand?
Great things never come easy.
We have to work hard for it.
All in all, never forget that if you fail to accomplish your dream, it does not mean it is not accomplishable.
Doubt has killed many more dreams than failures have ever did.
The choice is yours.
