Encourage and be determined

I was watching the news recently and there was a story about a man who went from janitor to principal. In 1985, he started out as a janitor in a school when the principal pulled him aside and have him the encouragement he needed. The principal said, "I want to see you grading papers rather than pushing them". This short sentence encouraged him to be determined enough to change his life. He went on to say that he smiles constantly because he is so happy to be where he is and to be working in that same school. Such a heartfelt story!! It is important as people, moms and dads and siblings and  friends that we encourage each other instead of discourage them. A kind word of gesture can go a long way. I saw a quote that I thought was perfectly fitting for this topic. 
Such a wonderful saying by an extraordinary person! You never know the struggle or situation that someone may be going thru but a simple smile may change someone's day. Remember that you can make a difference! I believe in peace and love (hence the name of my blog)! So remember say encouraging things and be determined to follow your dreams! You are the only one that can create the path to your dreams! 

Dreams come to those who work hard and are determined. Instant gratification teaches less than working hard and remaining confident and proud! Love one another and be proud of yourself every step of the way, even if it's just a baby step!
