About This Quote

When you hear that voice in your head that says, "Why me?" or "Nothing personal, your name just happened to come up" it is time to get up and do something about it. It doesn't matter why your name came up. The voice might be telling you about a friend who has the same name, your name happens to be similar to someone else's, or because of a coincidence. All you have to do is get yourself out there and make an impact.

It doesn't matter why. The only thing that matters is getting out there and making an impact on the world.
