Don't let other people bring you down. Sometimes, some people need to leave your life for some things to start happening. The energy you surround yourself with determines the happenings in your life.

Don't be afraid to be who you are; if there are people who won't accept you, then let them go. If you don't challenge yourself, you will never realize what you can achieve. Learn how to be independent; in the end, you need to be there for yourself. Challenges will come but how you respond to them defines your character and the quality of your personality.

Remember, life will not wait for you, decide what you want and go for it. You can never grow above the level of your thought life; watch the depth of your thoughts, for as you think so are you. The world around us takes up the properties of our thoughts and words. Through our thoughts and words, we can influence how the world around us takes form.
