the realization at an early age
that if we do not help ourselves
no one else will
and nothing will change
is an incredible motivator
to achieve life changes
Qualifications! ! !
those little pieces of paper
are life changing opening new doors
if we can learn necessary skills
perfection can be hourly
the impossible takes a little longer
our old heads have a full measure
of life experience to draw upon
if we spend enough time
to think solutions through
time will pass fast or slow
potential within ourselves
none will know unless
we strive to change our lives
