You Can; keep pursuing your dream. It does not in your first failure!

When I was in the University, I met a guy, who was  in medical school.

One day, we had a conversation and I got to know more about this amazing guy. He was actually studying Medicine as his second degree.

Ever since he could remember, he had always wanted to be a doctor, but you know how Naija will not allow someone be great.

If WAEC doesn't work you, JAMB will jam you, or University will give you Philosophy instead of Law.

This guy ended up attending a Polytechnic and later on got admitted into the University.

Don't get excited.

The University did not give him his Choice.

However, he took the offer. Better than staying at home and watching your mates get ahead of you.

In his final year in the Course, he sat for JAMB again and applied for Medicine.

He got it(You can shout for Joy now).

As I type this, he's a Graduate of Medical school and I am proud of him.

So, what is that thing you want to do? That dream you think is too big? That profession you've always wanted? That place you want to go?

I want you to look at the mirror and tell the person staring back at you that YOU CAN.

It doesn't matter how depressing your present situation is. Many have gone through similar cases and emerged victorious.

I'm sure you're familiar with Abraham Lincoln's story?

So, keep pursuing your dreams.

Persistence will make you Thrive.

You can.
