In the prosperous times, you put it in your pocket; in the lean times, you put it in your heart and that's when you discover who you are.
If you only talk to a person's head and not their heart people won't listen to you.
There is nothing as powerful as a made up mind. Do not give yourself another excuse to put off making up your mind. You know in your heart of hearts that once you do that you have got to act. You owe it to the world, your family and most importantly, to yourself to live a life of no regrets. Stop worrying about what other people will think, say, or do. You only have one life. LIVE IT now. You have GREATNESS within you!!
You were created on purpose for a purpose. There is a thirst and hunger in your heart that is real. Pay attention to it.

Love yourself unconditionally, just as you love those closest to you despite their faults.
