When I was young I was always told that:
I had to learn to take care of myself
No one was going to take me where I wanted to go
I was going to have to get there on my own
I would have to find my way and have the strength to make all my own dreams come true
I often felt alone, unloved and unappreciated
Until one day I understood exactly what the true message was
If there is something you want, you have to fight for it
You have to take every step necessary to meet your goal
Don’t expect others to give you what you want, for then you are not the one who has accomplished something
Don’t be afraid to do the work, keep your eyes wide open, remember each step that you take
For those steps will be the affirmation of your success.
