“We do not get to choose how we start out in life. We do not get to choose the day we are born or the family we are born into, what we are named at birth, what country we are born in, and we do not get to choose our ancestry. All these things are predetermined by a higher power. By the time you are old enough to start making decisions for yourself, a lot of things in your life are already in place. It’s important, therefore, that you focus on the future, the only thing that you can change.”
― Idowu Koyenikan, Wealth for All: Living a Life of Success at the Edge of Your Ability
We can not change yesterday, no matter how much we might lament. The only thing left to us is to shape now and thus reshape the future to reflect our dreams of today.
