Lailah Gifty AkitaThe courage to continue is the sureness of success.
About This Quote
People want to believe in the things they do. More than anything, we want to believe in ourselves, and we want to believe in what we say we’re going to do. This is especially true in the case of difficult and painful changes. We don’t want to “fail,” and we know that if we give up on our dreams, we will never achieve them.
But when you truly believe in yourself, you don’t stop pursuing your dreams when they seem impossible. You continue working hard and believing in yourself until you succeed.
