"Life presents difficult choices at times, true, but for the most part, I believe people overly complicate simple matters to make them more difficult than they appear. Rather than contemplating purely on the choices in front of you, make sure you look inward first. Be certain that you have faith and confidence in your abilities. I think you will find that mostly, it's not about the choices, but the person making them. Be brave, follow your heart, make your choices, and with a great spirit, see them through."

It's amazing!

"If you get lost, find yourself. Remember who you are and who you have the potential to be. Be forgiving. Let go of whatever is holding you hostage and stunting your growth; it will be hard but it's well worth it. Make smart decisions. Choose to be happy. Train your brain to think encouraging thoughts. Stop allowing this world to consistently drain and diminish you. Don't surround yourself with negative people or those who don't care about your well-being. Create the life you always imagined. Remember it's never too late to start. Aim. Execute. Conquer. Repeat. Find balance. Work hard but love even harder."
