"I choose to live by choice, not by chance.

I choose to make changes, rather than excuses.

I choose to be motivated, not manipulated.

I choose to be useful, not used.

I choose self-respect, not self-pity.

I choose to excel, not to compete.

I choose to listen to my inner voice, not to the random opinions of others."
