Nope
NOPE
I will not be lazy.
I will not accept what I have now if I know I can do better.
I will not sleep until I finish.
I will not leave until I’m done.
I will not tremble in front of new challenges.
I will not stop until I stop breathing.
I will be whatever I want to be even if it takes sacrifice.
Even if I have little to give.
Even if it takes time.
Even if I have no time at all.
I will succeed.
