‘Be happy. Be humble. And always run your own race.‘- Alex Liu

Do not expect life to be fair to you. That is not going to happen. If that is what you are waiting for, you are going to wait forever.

Do not wait for what is not there, for what is not coming. Instead, use what you have right now, use what is working for you right now, to get what you want.

Do not worry about who is ahead of you. Focus your time and energy on what is in front of you right now.

Remember, your tomorrow, your future, depends on what you are doing right now.

So if you want your life to take a different direction, you must think differently. You must work differently. You must meet different people. Because if you do not have the courage to change what is not working for you, then do not expect a different result.

Whatever happens, be happy. Whatever happens, be humble. And no matter what is going on in your life, if you want to win the battle, you must run your own race.

Believe In Yourself!

The beginning of things is always scary. But do not let that stop you from doing your things. It not going to be easy, not when you are a beginner. Just believe in yourself. Believe in your abilities to get things done. Don’t fear. When you see fear, do not quit. It is part of the game of life. Fear is everywhere, but if you work really hard, you can defeat fear.

“Believe in yourself! Have faith in your abilities! Without a humble but reasonable confidence in your own powers you cannot be successful or happy.”- Norman Vincent Peale

You are not alone. People are going through the same thing that you are going through right now. If you doubt yourself, continue. Reach out for help. Don’t experience everything alone. Because there are people out there who are ready and willing to help you. If you don’t reach out, they can’t find you. It is your job to talk to other people who have gone through the same process. They will help you. Remember, as the saying goes, “If you don’t ask, you don’t get.”
