Commitment is the stuff character is made of; It is coming through time after time, year after year; It is the triumph of integrity over skepticism; It is the actions that speak louder than the words...
I choose to live by choice, not by chance;
to make changes, not excuses;
to be motivated, not manipulated;
to be useful, not used;
to excel, and to compete;
I choose self esteem, not self pity;
I choose to listen to my inner voice,
not the negative opinion of others.
