*At age 23, Oprah was fired from her first reporting job

Whatever your dream is, it is not too late to achieve it. You aren’t a failure because you haven’t found fame and fortune by the age of 21, 30, 40 or 50
*Tell yourself you’re never too old for change and to make it
*Tell yourself you never missed your chance
*Tell yourself that you are good enough
You can do it. The hardest part is taking the 1st step.
2021, let's kick ass! 😉
