“If we believe we can or cannot, either way, we are right”. Believing in yourself adds flavour to your soup of life. We create our reality from our thoughts, beliefs and choices. We can accomplish the impossible as long as we believe that it is possible. Nothing happens unless a firm belief precedes it. A firm belief is the foundation to every accomplishment. Beliefs are important to us because if we are determined to believe in ourselves, we can create a positive environment around us. Encourage yourself with positive statements such as ‘I am successful’ rather than ‘I am a failure.’ Those who succeed in life are not the ones with greater advantages, but those who firmly believe they have a position at the top, and presently see themselves in their future position. Condoleezza Rice, US Secretary of State, believed as a child that the sky was the limit as far as her future was concerned. Although she grew up in the segregated south at the peak of racism, in her was instilled the notion that there were no real limits to what she could do with her life.If she could dream it, she could achieve it, was her strong believe, etched into her by her parents. In her words: “Our parents really did have us convinced that even though I couldn’t have a hamburger at Woolworth’s, I could be President of the United States,” she told Ebony. Serving now as U.S Secretary of State, Rice has attained a lofty position of influence, one that has never before been occupied by an African-American woman.Be mindful of the fact that the universe responds to your moves. When you make a choice to move, the universe either responds with a ‘BRAVO’ or ‘OOPS, TRY AGAIN’. But if you don’t make a move, you will never get a response. So believe, believe, believe in that unique expression of DNA designed by God, the Master Sculptor: YOU.
