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.

I have been playing a lottery jackpot for over 2 years all I have won is 5000 thousand dollars ever since I still keep playing it and I haven’t win again I was wondering what was happening, until the day I was looking for how to win online I saw a comment how someone testifies Dr. Ughulu it was very interesting and I also message him to help, and I explained everything to him, so he did everything for me and gave me six Powerball winning numbers.

    Michael Eric on

  • Good day everyone. I want to quickly use this medium to give my greatest testimony on how I won the lottery. This is something I wanted to talk about before now, since 2015 but I was told not to do so. But today I decided to tell the world.
    First my name is Marie Holmes, I’m from coastal North Carolina, a single mother trying to meet ends to support my children with a string of five retail jobs. which makes life so difficult for me. On one faithful day, I met a man called Albert. He saw my status and said he will help me. He asked if I have interest in the lottery? I responded “yes” so he told me about how Dr Marcus made him become who he is today. He gave me Dr Marcus email address and said I should follow his procedure, before he left. When I got home I sent a message to the email address he gave me, and I explained to him my situation. I never got a response from him, after three weeks he responded to my message. He told me what I needed to know and what to do, Which I did. 48 hours later I received his message in the morning. He sent me some numbers and said I should go play Powerball. That I have found favor, I play and I won myself $188 million. The unknown man I came across with changed my life for good all thanks to Dr Marcus as well. Today I decided to share because everybody deserves a chance to become successful in life! Reach Dr Marcus via his email and he will be there for you as well drmacusspellcaster@gmail.com
