If somebody were to ask you, “What is your greatest power?”—what would you say?
Is your physical strength? The way you walk? The way you speak? Is it the way you look? No, it’s none of those things.
Your greatest power is your power of choice! Your power to choose a positive or negative attitude. To choose good or bad, right or wrong. To choose to not only stay in school but to apply yourself diligently—to make the absolute best use of your time while you’re there. The power to choose to just say “no” when “no” is the best answer. What we are today is a result of the choices we have made to this point in our lives, and what we will be in the future is a result of the choices we make today.
