7 Young People who are kicking ass in their respective fields!
We often feel weighed down by societal norms or peer pressure about how much we have to achieve and we feel peaceful when we read articles or posts about how it’s OK to be what we are are where we are in life.
The purpose of this article is to do precisely the opposite!!
This article is supposed to deliver my kind of rugged, kick-in-the-nuts kinda motivation!
Life isn’t fair or soft or calls you “aww poor baby!” and neither will I!
If you don’t like your relatives calling you names or parents comparing you with your neighbour’s son/daughter, don’t just run away lil punk! Take a stand and play the game like you are born to win! Give your neighbour’s son a complex and your mother, tears of joy!
Here are 7 boys and girls killing at what they do! Read and learn:
