The secret to growth.

The only person you should strive to be better than, is the person you were yesterday.
Being better or worse than anybody else doesn't and shouldn't matter, one has to win and one has to lose and it's ok if you're the one that loses, but always win in the race against yourself.

“Don’t compare yourself with anyone in this world…if you do so, you are insulting yourself.” –Bill Gates

When we compare ourselves to someone else we will always have to rank ourselves as either superior or inferior to that other person, and neither of those assessments will ever be factually accurate. Infact, the ONLY person you should EVER compare yourself with is YOU!

One day you might come out successful, but just remember, that doesn't mean you can't get better, winning once isn't a dead end, you will have a lot more distance to cover.

Each day has 24 hours, it's actually a lot..and it's our job to make most of it!

    Thought provoking article. If there is a conscious and consistent forward growth in your life, you have achieved your life-purpose. You don't have to compare your growth with any other person's growth, because every person has unique qualities, not amenable to comparison. Your fight is with yourself not others. Very true.

Unity...It starts with YOU!

"Unity... it starts with YOU, ends with WE and brings SUCCESS."  ~Annanya Desai    If we all remain united, we will not be defeated. Even when everyone on planet Earth is going through difficult times, it makes the situation look much better when we realize that we are all going through it.... together, to realize that everyone understands and is there for you. We all know the story of a farmer and his quarrelling sons. The sons could each easily break a single stick, but when several were made into a bunch neither of them could break it. The sons then recognised the value of unity and gave up their quarells. We understand from this that peace and success come from from overcoming our differences. If together we are unable to do so we will all 'fall', only to learn our lesson and get back up together. Unity is strength...and if we all no matter our race, gender, ethnicity, etc.. come together and work towards a common purpose we are more likely to succeed. During thes...

Dance and how it moulds me.

Image
 I have been dancing since I was only 3 years old, me now being 11 have been dancing all my life.  Ever since I started going to my dance class, I feel like I find myself and connect with me through dance. It is my safe place, whenever I am sad, frustrated, mad or even happy I go dance. Dancing helps me feel better, it helps me be better. Whenever I dance I feel like i know who i am, i feel like I am not lost anymore, I feel like I am at home. Dancing makes me smile during the darkest days and let's me enjoy the days when the sun is up and bright. I do ballet, but am very fond of other dance styles, like hip hop, contemporary and many more.   Recently I went to a national dance competition, where me and my fellow dancers won the first and second place. I know I will get more opportunities and I am forever ready to take them on.
