It doesn’t matter that you were laughed at, bullied, insulted, called all sorts of names.
It doesn’t matter how many times you failed no matter how hard you tried.
It doesn’t matter that you are faced with financial difficulty, struggling to provide for your family.
It doesn’t matter that your mates are successful, living large, driving flashy cars but you are just starting out in life.
It doesn’t matter that others are in a relationship or married but you are still single.
It doesn’t matter how old you are and haven’t achieved your dreams yet.
It doesn’t matter if people say you don’t have what it takes, that you are not good enough.
It doesn’t matter what people say about you, how little they think of you.
