I just believed that one with God has more than enough. Whatever you fail to achieve today, you will live to achieve them tomorrow! It is what the mind generates that controls our thoughts and behaviors. ‘’If you sow a thought you will reap an act .If you sow an act, you will reap up a character’’. When a man is frustrated and cannot control his thought; he blames everyone around him and feels it’s man that owns the key of his success and controls his destiny. ‘’There’s nothing a man in trouble cannot think of’’, he thinks of good and bad.

They see life as an adventure, they take life as it comes and not for a pleasure. “Life is never a place for idleness; it is a place for work”.

Life goes up and down; believe it or not it is the truth about life. Another thing I found in great people is that they see ah

Every successful plan starts from our attitude towards our success. I tell you today, that nothing works better for you if you did not change your perceptions about what you call problem.

Because you can do it now and you can do it better again. I have a friend during my days in school during my diploma progamme after completing a two years programme.
