Success Story
I have many success stories to share with others in my life. But here's just one that focuses on my writing career. I have written 3 books by the age of 21, two of which were written when I was 20. It was this time last year that I have become an author. I have the first, Daring Quests of Mystics, published. I plan to self-publish the other two. I have overcome many difficulties during my writing career because of my blindness and multiple physical disabilities, along with English being my second language, a language I learned when I was 11. But I'm happy to have come this far. And I just want to give this message to everyone out there who feels that he/she has arrived at a dead end--never fear for what the future may hold for you. Keep stepping ahead. You'll never know what surprises life can bring your way; prepare for any bad fortunes, and do your best to conquer them, with a smile. :) I know everyone faces different challenges in life, and I know that there are many tactics to "fix" any bad things. But I know mine is to have a positive outlook on life and enjoy what life has to offer. Okay, I don't want to get off topic...I just want to let you all know that dreams do come true. After my writing career, I hope to earn science doctorates from Harvard University. I know there will be many obstacles waiting for me on the road, but I'm glad for the opportunity to face them. It is better to have faced and conquered difficulties than never have enjoyed happiness alongside. Never give up!
