There was a point in my life when I felt nothing reasonable can come out of it, in fact it got to a point where I literally voiced out my frustration and wish I could start my life all over again, with the hope that I'll choose wisely and make the right decision, when given such opportunity, but then I had an encounter with someone during those moment, and the words from that encounter literally change my mindset and the way I see and deal with life difficulties.
And now I've come to the understanding that during our life journey, there'll surely be difficulties, trying times and challenges, but having someone to speak senses back into you or having a keywords or watch word as guide and testament lead you through, is a plus everyone need to make wave in life.

HOW IT ALL BEGAN
During my childhood days, I could remember there was a time I was being mocked for the poor report card I brought from school by my guidance, and she even compare mine with that of her children, the mockery and laughter were so much that I began to cry and but that doesn't stop them from laughing, so I got overwhelmed by their mockery to the point where I angry said, I could return back to being a baby, that hopefully that will be make become serious with my education, or at least make me choose a better family, where I'll be care about, unlike the one were I was been mocked by those who ought to motivate me.
But fortunately for me, during that my outburst, my grandmother came visiting and overhead my words, then she rebuke me from saying such, and then sat me down, and dish me a life long lesson that been a standard through which I face challenges and difficulties ever since.
Her words to me were that, no matter which path we took in life, there'll surely be challenges, though they might differs from one another, but will all face challenges, so the difference between those who overcame theirs and those who were brutalized by the challenge that face is the way the see and deal with such challenges.
So she told be to always dream big, envision myself achieving great things, and in as much as I envisioned such, I shouldn't fold my hands and expect such to come to reality just my imagination, she let me know, I'll have to watch and follow the footsteps of those who have achieved such feast before.
And when I put such to practice, I realize there was a great different in my academic results, Because I chose the best students in our class as a case study, and I get to realize, the guy read at every given opportunity, and he's never shy of asking anything he didn't understand, so when I followed his path, I transform from being 32/33 to being 3/33 position in my class then.

And while growing up, I've been able to relate her words back then to these quote below;
If you can dream it, you can do it. Always remember that this whole thing was started with a dream and a mouse. - Walt Disney
So in all I do ever since, when faced with a target, goal, challenges or whatever it's been addressed as, I try to imagine the end result even before beginning any action in on such, then after that, I draft out strategy on how I'll get to my envisioned end result, so with that end result in mind, I gradually face those life challenges with the slated strategy, and fortunately for me, nothing as been an hindrance whenever I do such.
