 The power of belief is real. Most people who believed in their dreams and goals accomplished them. Why? Because the majority of the time, they put in the work to make it happen. They believed in their ability to succeed. 

Believe in you. Set a goal. Aim as high as you desire. And reach it. 

Don’t limit yourself. You’ll only go as far as you *believe* you can go. ❤️

 If you actively work towards your goals, you have a good chance of accomplishing them.  Yes, there are some goals that are hard to attain like wanting to be a NBA player or wanting to be a Billionaire, but even there, working towards the goal can help you.  You might get a college scholarship for playing college basketball or become a multi-millionaire, but not a billionaire.

On the other hand, if you are a victim and view every failure through victimhood, you will be a failure all your life, guaranteed.
