As someone who has dealt with less than favorable circumstances, I’ve learned early on that circumstances only determine my point of origin, but they do not determine my goals, my successes or my achievements.

While circumstances can make the road harder or easier, they are mere supporters or obstacles on our journey, but it’s our responsibility to make the best decisions so that no matter what our circumstances are, our goals stay on track and we reach our intended destination.

If you look at your life, what is one area where you’ve let circumstances determine your success? What can you do to make better decisions and in turn change those circumstances?
