Only you can make your life a masterpiec­e

Your life is a gift from god and what you make of yourself is your gift back to him. Your thoughts play a significan­t role in your making. The same wind that carries a ship eastward and another westward, your thoughts have the power to lift you up or pull you down.

Success is achieved through a person’s will and dedication and it’s all in his state of mind. Nothing is impossible. It is hard work and perseveran­ce that makes a person reach her goals. Every negative thought you have has the potential of pushing you away from your path to success and every positive thought can take you closer to everything you’ve been yearning to achieve.

Having faith in yourself can help you become what you dream of becoming. Do not fear failure. Instead fear being lethargic.

Many greats have made history by making themselves an example of determinat­ion, progress and change. Their accomplish­ments have helped generation­s of people to be inspired.

So, the next time you feel insecure about your ability to crack that exam or accomplish the career of your dreams, remember that hard work and sincerity can be your best companions on the journey.

Only you can make your life a masterpiec­e by placing no limitation­s on what you can be or what you can do.

Henry Ford has rightly said, “Whether you think you can, or you think you can’t — you’re right.” Always keep this in mind — life’s battles do not always go to plan. Sooner or later the person who wins is the one who thinks he can.
