I watched a movie this evening, and there was this one scene where a father is giving a speech to his son (some of you may recognise which movie this is from) and I felt the what the father said was so true. So I tried my best to convey the message to you.
We all start out life innocent and good. We are full of boundless energy, enthusiasm and curiosity. Our heads are full of wild fantastic dreams of becoming fire-fighters, astronauts, pilots, business men, doctors, ballerinas or princesses. And then it becomes time for us to become our own person, venture out and take on the world, maybe with new dreams, new fantasies and new aspirations. New hopes and goals … it’s all good.
Some of you achieve these dreams, these goals, but some of you change. You stop being you. You let other people “stick their finger in your face” and say “you no good”. And when things start getting hard, you look for something to blame … The economy maybe, a relative, someone else. Well let me say this, though we all already know it … the worlds’ not full of sunshine and roses. It is a very hard, mean and vicious place, and no matter how tough you are, it will beat you down till your knees and keep you there …
IF YOU LET IT.
No one on this planet can hit as hard as life (except for Chuck Norris 
), but its not about how hard you can hit, but how hard you can take a hit and still keep moving forward. It is about how much you can take, but still keep moving forward. That is how you win. So if you know what you are worth, what you want from life, then go out and get what you are worth or want from life, but you must be prepared to take what life throws at you (“you have to be prepared to take the hits”). And stop pointing your finger saying “You aren't where you are” because of him, her, anybody or anything. Cowards and unsuccessful people do that and I want you to know that that is not you. You are all better than that.
So go out, make a difference in your lives. Take the punches life throws at you. And be a success.
To your success.
