A choice: Poverty or Prosperity

"I hated poverty. Poverty is more of a choice than anything else, and i can change that (poverty).It depends upon how hard I want to work, and I decided that I would change it."

               -Dr. Ben Carson

Reflection: I think quote means that you can accomplish anything by trying your best. For example, if you want something, you have to do what ever it takes to get it. Just as long as its the right thing to do, do it. Doing nothing isn't going to get you anywhere but to a life full of regret. So, if you want to be something important in life, you need to work hard to be able to get it.
