WHO OWNS SUCCESS?

Success belongs to those who wake up every morning and pursue their dreams regardless of the hardships.

Success is for those who have made up their mind not to give up, not to give in and not to throw in the towel.

It is for those who have said "It is not going to be over until I win", success is for those who don't suffer from "what will people say syndrome".

Success is for you, never underestimate the ability and the potential that has been invested in you. You've got Greatness within you and you deserve to be successful.
