Whether you believe you can or you believe you can't -- either way you are correct! -- NEVER underestimate yourself - thats for others to do.
Embrace the rapids in your life.... by getting through them once, twice, three-times -- you start navigating them that much better. Then it becomes fun --- ride the waves fearlessly and enjoy the ride ;-)
Consider that the book for the rest of your life begins tomorrow -- because it does -- plan it -- WRITE IT -- make it EPIC. To do anything else is an insult to yourself. START YOUR STORY!
Your world will always be too small if you never take the time to open your eyes and open your mind to the possibilities of life. Each second counts.... make sure you remember that... then go out and do something about it.
You can travel to a hundred shores. Visit foreign land's and read a thousand books and never realize all you ever needed was right there. The most important voice we ignore is the voice in our heart. Stay blessed and listen to it!
There were two conquerors. One conquered many hundreds. One conquered only himself. I say it is the one who conquered himself that is the better of the two because the victory was complete and all his own. You know your demons, be your own guardian angel.
So in the usual way a co-worker came up to me and groaned "happy monday" canned sarcasm that's universal and so I said "yes it is!" noting the confusion on their face, I continued: "because this is a Monday I have never seen before." In this life it is all a matter of perspective. Peace!
