I Was Lightning Before The Thunder

You don't have to be the best in the class. You just have to do your best.

Growing up was tough, and sitting in a classroom was even tougher for me as I dealt with ADHD and OCD. At the end of the day I think I could have been in the top 90% of my class grade-wise, but my mind was in so many places...

If you're a dreamer, don't stop dreaming.

I always knew school wasn't a fit for me. Learning in the classroom was (and still is) skewed too heavily on one type of learning, and it left others behind. It still surprises me to this day, though, when people think they are going to be successful just because they get A's on their report card.

But, I have met plenty of "Ivy Leaugers" who have not lived up to their potential. Just because you may seem to have all the makings of a success, it does not mean you will live up to it.

It's not where you start, but where you finish!

A lot of you know my favorite band these days is the Imagine Dragons. They are my go-to for morning workouts. The other day the song "Thunder" specifically caught my attention...

"Just a young gun with a quick fuse
I was uptight, wanna let loose
I was dreaming of bigger things
And wanna leave my own life behind
Not a yes sir, not a follower
Fit the box, fit the mold
Have a seat in the foyer, take a number
I was lightning before the thunder"

That song taught me this: You don't have to be the best in the class. You just have to do your best. 

To be successful all you need is a dream, and then you have to pursue that dream. Once you find something you love to do, that's the one thing you'll be the best at.

  • Hello everyone my name is Kiara Hahn from California US. I’m here to testify of a great and powerful spell caster called Dr Jakuta. I was so confused and devastated when my fiance left me without a word, I’ve spent the last month crying and feeling guilty. I wasn’t talking to anybody, so one day I search online on love tips because I needed him back desperately and I loved him so much, until I found Dr Jakuta who has solved so many relationship problems then I contacted him and he promised that in less than 72hrs he will come back to me. After I did all he asked, to my greatest surprise my fiance who had refused to speak with me came to my house and asked for forgiveness for all he had made me go through and now we are living happily together, if you have any relationship problem you can contact him Below are his contact details: Email him at doctorjakutaspellcaster24@gmail. com

  • DR. TEBE HELP ME BRING MY LOVE BACK +2349039870949
    My name is MIA MARY, I am here to testify to the good work of Dr. Tebe Spell Caster. 4 years ago, my husband left home, and he never returned, no phone calls, no letters, no emails, no sign of him anywhere. my daughter got sick with multiple sclerosis, things were so tough for me. I had lost hope, 2 years ago, I met a psychic, who said he would help me, I paid over $800, and still nothing happened, I lost hope completely, and my daughter’s situation got worse each day. Last month, I saw a posting concerning the good works of the professional Dr. Tebe. I gave him a try. I paid about $2000, for all three spells (Bring Lover back, Healing spell, and Career spells). In a matter of weeks, my husband called me and told me he was sorry that he wanted to come back to me and that he would explain everything when he came back, three days later, I got a new job with a loan and finance company, right now, my daughter condition is getting better each day and I trust she would be well in a matter of days. I want to thank DR TEBE spell Caster drtebespelltemple@gmail.com, call his WhatsApp number +2349039870949 for his efforts and for bringing my life back to normal and so close to perfection.
    My name is Mia Mary, I live in the UK.
