The people who get on in this world are the people who get up and look for the circumstances they want, and, if they can't find them, make them. – George Bernard Shaw, playwright

Are the circumstances of your world the way you want them?  Is there something you could do differently to get yourself closer to your dream life?  We all have a past that has created our present, but there is no need to continue the let the negative aspects impact our future.  Change your path by leaving your past where it belongs, in the past, then, focus on where you want to go and blaze a new path toward your dreams!  Throughout life we should all be able to count on each other for help, but we can’t expect anyone else to change our lives for us, we must do it ourselves. Take it all on!  No complaining or blaming just look forward and say to yourself, in the face of hardships, “I can do this!”  Where you start from doesn’t matter but how and where you go is up to you!
