peek in the mirror and catch that fire in your eyes—
It’s the sign you’re alive, unstoppable, unbound.
No one can betray your vision when you hold it close,
no one can derail your journey when you chart your course.
You are your own champion, your fiercest ally.
Another pervasive myth is that success is purely a matter of luck. These people look at a successful individual and attribute their accomplishments to sheer fortune. “He’s so lucky to have that job,” they might say, or “She’s so lucky her kids are so disciplined.” This mindset ignores the causes and effects at play. By waiting for their lucky break, these individuals fail to take proactive steps toward their goals. They turn to betting and gambling, hoping for a jackpot that might never come, rather than building success through deliberate actions and choices.
I asked for favours; opportunities knocked,
With each door opened, blessings unlocked.
In every chance given, skills I honed,
In seizing the moment, my talents shone.
