Be fed up with looking down upon who you are. There should be that turning point where you look in the mirror and go like, "Yeah, right, I am good enough. I am ordained for signs and wonders. I have big dreams, and I will ensure they are actualized. I will not take an ordinary path because my Creator has created me to excel in life."
