What happens when you start believing in yourself?

Did you ever come across a situation, when someone said YOU COULDN’T DO it, but successfully DID it anyway ?

There are always going to be two types of people around you — the first one who are your well-wishers, wanting to give you positive thoughts and want you to achieve great heights. And the second one are the haters who will pour all the negative vibes towards you from every single cell of their body.

Mind is everything. And we become what we think about!

Here are some instances from my own life and on the top of my head is that instance when I was preparing for examinations to pursue an MS program in the US. The teacher told me that I’ll never clear those examinations with a good score and never will I be able to pursue an MS from a good university in the US.

Here I am today, holding a degree — MS in Pharmaceutical Sciences from one of the best universities in the US.

Another instance, throughout the Masters program, I had been told several times that it takes more than two years to get to defending your dissertation.

And to everyone’s surprise, I was the only one from my university to have successfully defended within this time-frame having three publications under my name!

So I’m all aimed at making a point here that….

It’s you who decides!

Whether you think you can OR you can’t, EITHER WAY YOU’RE RIGHT !

So don’t give up — Believe in yourself — Dare to dream big — Work hard towards your dream — MAKE IT HAPPEN !
