The enemy is poverty, not people against one another. Try to be better than yesterday, not better than other people. Have an attitude of a winner, think like a winner and act like a winner. A pot endures so much heat to get food cooked, but does not get jealous when the food is praised for being delicious. Winners congratulate others when they shine, because they know one day they will be clapped for when it's their time.
There are no shortcuts in life, allow the process. No matter how much you water a tree, it won't bear fruit before time. No matter how long it takes to fall pregnant, it will take nine months to give birth to a child. Trust the process and believe in yourself.
