As a child, Jean Claude Van Damme was labelled a skinny weakling but years later down the line he was called 'The Muscles of Brussels'. Dr. Myles Munroe was labelled a half-bred monkey by his teacher years later the teacher was on a queue to have his copy of Dr. Munroe's books autographed. Kelechi Iheanacho was considered too skinny to play football but the skinny young man not only won the Golden Ball and Silver Boot of the U-17 World Cup, he created a new way of celebrating. The stories are endless of people who went beyond the negative labels placed on them by others. A wise man said, 'Never allow people build your world for they will always build it too small'. Pay no attention to the naysayers because they are only looking for a way to look over your head and tell you, 'I knew you would never make it'. Please don't give them that thrill of victory. You are unique, you are one of a kind an original that has no duplicate. Go out and live all you can be the life the Almighty has ordained you to live and don't settle for less. Whoever says anything untrue about you is simply expressing an opinion which he or she is entitled to but which never counts.
Yours is the next success story of moving beyond the negative label placed on you by some ignorant persons. Reach for the stars for the sky is no longer the limit.
