Cheryll’s Desire for You
“The world is full of naysayers, all of them eager to shout you down at the slightest indication you might transcend mediocrity, but the greatest sin you can commit is to yourself become one of them. Our job isn’t to join that group, but to silence it, to accomplish things so great and unimaginable that its members are too awed to speak.” [Jon Morrow, Associate Editor of Copyblogger]
“Rise Regardless!”
“Keep Going!“
