Having the power to motivate, inspire, and encourage students is fulfilling. Having been in their shoes, helping them cultivates discipline and provides valuable work experience.
1. "The pessimist sees difficulty in every opportunity. The optimist sees opportunity in every difficulty." - Winston Churchill
If we keep focusing on those barriers that are stopping us from achieving our goals, then no opportunities are enough for us to develop ourselves any further. Try to learn from mistakes, don't ever give up immediately when you encounter problems, see life obstacles as challenges that can help us become more determined and more independent.
2. "You don’t need to be better than anyone else, you just need to be better than you used to be." - Wayne Dyer
Always remember that there are more than 7 billion people on this planet, and you will never be the best among them. So stop competing and comparing yourself to everyone surrounding because there will be someone better than you no matter what. Feel happy because you are already a better version of your-past-self.
