“A DREAM DOESN’T BECOME REALITY THROUGH MAGIC; IT TAKES SWEAT, DETERMINATION AND HARD WORK”  ~COLIN POWELL Dreams are normal to everyone. Dreams will make us work harder and make us to reach them by our own sweats. It is a way to make plans of our future. It is always a dream if we want a better life in future. It is meaningless if we don’t have dreams in life. I always dreaming of becoming a nurse in the near future but as I go on to my dream, struggles are there approaching me which is normal to everyone. I want to become a nurse because I found myself in the hospital, checking up all the patients and helping all the people who needed me. Today, I’ve now decided to be true of myself because there will be more years to fight with it. Reaching your dream in life is the most successful of all. Facing the world with the confidence, determination and have a positive thoughts in your life are the keys for the dream. Making it possible with your own blood, sweat and tears. With all

"EVERYONE THINKS OF CHANGING THE WORLD, BUT NO ONE THINKS OF CHANGING HIMSELF." ~ LEO TOLSTOY           Change always start with yourself. It always yourself who decide what you want to be. Considering your environment which it changes anytime. Every time we change ourselves, we can finally do everything we wanted. Reality changes us from what we are, it always the reason why the change is the only permanent thing on Earth.         From that change, you can motivate others that change always start with yourself. By that change, we can say that the change we made was for everyone. With everything, we are similar to the fall season wherein the leaves are changing. That change is the start of everything. Just like us, we change ourselves to help everyone not only for yourself but to everybody. We can make them inspire on us, show them how good to start changing by their own selves. We always think on how we could change that thing but you cannot change first yourself.

"BY CHANGING NOTHING, NOTHING CHANGES." ~TONY ROBBINS             Every year, everyone wants to change their own life. Every year they have their own New Year's resolution. This is the time they wanted to let go of their past time. People say it is the perfect time to get rid of the things they wanted to improve. They have their own ways on how they wanted to change their life like they are going to gain weight, have a perfect relationship, study harder and to save money.         This year 2019, everyone wants to achieve those but for me, you cab not change yourself as  the New Year came. Well, you can improve yourself but not the totally the new you. It doesn't matter if this new year can be the new you. And this new year, I'm not going to be the new version of me. I just want to be like this, my own unique ways to show the real me. It is possible to change yourself but if you really pursue it then go for it. It is better for myself to be like this bec
