        YOUR DREAM IS YOUR SIGNATURE

Everybody should have an aim or an ambition in life.Those who have no aim in their life are like a ship without a rudder or an envelope without an address.
              In our life there nothing is impossible.The word 'impossible' itself spells I'm possible.In this world everything is possible on the basis of will power and determination.We should have patience and faith in our life.Also have determination,dedication and devotion to attain success.We never bother about the results.Keep on going even if the pace is slow just ensure it remains steady.Our positive attitude and clear frame of mind determine our future.In this world there is no such thing as CHANGE by our own ideas,will and ability,we can create of chances,circumstances and the desired atmosphere to achieve the toughest goal.
               Our freedom fighters-Mahatma Gandhi,Sardar vallabhbhai patel,pandit Jawaharlal nehru,Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose and many others are glaring examples of the fact that Impossibilities work as a boon next attempt towards possibilities.
   "SUCCESS IS WHEN YOUR SIGNATURE CHANGES TO AUTOGRAPH"
 It is the great words from our former president Dr A.P.J Abdul Kalam sir.He is a great force to pull our present and future generation to achieve their goals.our goals are not to be better than anyone else.But to be better than we used to be.
                Nothing is impossible in this world.This implies that you can do anything,if you have will to do it.The WILL is like "the hammer that shatters glass but forges steel".A determination which strong as STEEL makes everything possible in the world.

If you dream it.You can do it
