Believe in yourself

By:

Dear my beloved students,
                This is a letter to you from the bottom of my heart. I am not a motivator, I don’t know how to make a sweet sentence to soothe you but I will use my life experience to touch your heart. As a teacher, I see a lot of my students’ behavior in my classes. Some of you are good in character and some of you are a little bit naughty. I don’t really care about your behavior because I believe that all of you are a good person. I believe that and you should believe that too.
                Some of my students approached me personally and told me their problems especially problem in their studies.  They told me how hard for them to survive just to obtain the diploma certificate.  Let me tell you something. Your journey is still far away. There are a lot of obstacles you have to face ahead you. Whatever problems that you face, you have to face them with a strong heart. You are still young. There are a lot of things you need to archive in your life so what you need is…believe in yourself. You can do whatever you want to do. You can be whatever you want to be. There is a potential inside you to be whatever you want to be, all the energy to do whatever you want to do. Though there is a time it may seem too difficult to continue, just hold on to your dream. One morning you will awake to realize that you are the person you dreamt of, doing what you wanted to do.
                Simply believe in yourself. Be yourself. Follow your heart. Ask yourself what you want to archive in your life and keep looking to that dream. After all, room for improvement is always our biggest room.  Don’t afraid to make mistakes. Doing mistakes is always being our good teacher and with that experience we can be a better person each and every day.
                I am what I am now simply because I believe in myself. I came from a not-so-rich family (but no so poor)… I have a lot of family problems but not a broken family. How do I want tell you my story? It is quite private. I don’t really feel comfortable talking about my family, my past. It is just enough for you to know that it was a hard time for me to grow in this family.   I had a determination to change my life style. So I studied so hard and I pass all the examinations with flying colors. As I grow older, I had challenged myself to archive my dreams…to be a teacher. I faced a lot of obstacles especially my family problems but I survive until now. I followed my dreams and here I am…teaching all of you. 
                Yes, I believe that every one of us has our own problems but we have to find our inner strength. Build up the motivation within ourselves. Keep telling ourselves that we can do anything. After all, mind is so powerful.  I wish you all the best. May Allah lead you to achieve your dreams and always follow your heart.
