FAITH
Early in my childhood my mother etched on my mind
that faith doesn't just mean trust in God
but it also means what you believe in
and how much you trust yourself.
I have also learnt from her that if you are positive
you will be more productive and achieve your goals.
If you have a dream and you trusted yourself with that dream
and had faith that it would work out,
Then it invariably actually works out!
This is true at least in my case.
My friends think that I am naively very optimistic and lucky too.
Well, God has been really very kind to me and
I didn't have to struggle much,
But I don't believe in 'luck' or 'planets and stars'.
I believe in the simple idea that you do good
and more good will come your way.
You do bad things and those things will come to haunt you.
Destiny is what you bring on to yourself by the power of intention
And what you do with the things that are in your hands.

So true! these are the golden keys to success :)

faith is a lovely word to trace on our deeds. positive thoughts captivate the healthy living gel of live, moisturizing the love back in turn. we deserve it against our faith in ourselves. trust our instincts and work the purpose of life at its best.
