hi angeline, Before it seems that it is very hard for me to get what I wanted. It seems fortune is very far away from me. However, my thinking changes when I met my boyfriend. He is also my bestfriend. He always lift me up whenever I feel down. I was taking up Bacheclor in Secondary Education and honestly speaking, I just forced myself on that course. After I graduated, I want to apply on call center or other office work. Then, my boyfriend told me that I must not abandon the 4 years of studying Education by looking for an office job or jobs on call center. Well, other people always say same to me. I listen to them. As of now, I am working as a public school teacher. My salary is enough for me and my family.I can buy their needs unlike before. I am also the one financing the construction of our house. To sum it up, I can say that I am now in this stage of my life because I am inspired. The people around me are my inspirations. Everytime it seems I want to give up, I just think of them. Aside from that, you should also put your heart on what you are doing. I believe that if you love what you are doing then you can be considered successful.

Work hard...don't dream big...neither get satisfied by what you have now..stay updated..give time to your family too or you will lose concentration in everything..

You should set goals for yourself and then accomplish them and you will feel successful. I always get a pad and pen and write down goals I want to accomplish and then as you check each one off, it motivates you to keep going :). Everyone has a different definition of what being successful is. If it is being successful financially, it is easier to make your goals specific and realistic. If they aren't specific, most people don't end up achieving them...like be rich. If you say make 100 by the end of the week, that is a lot more likely to happen because you have something to measure your success. I always make short and long term goals as well so I always have something to look forward to. This is what helps me, and I hope it helps you too :)
