Quotes to ponder:

"It took some time for me to understand that I had more control over my situations than I was allowing myself to believe."

"Success, defined by a personal goal, financial or otherwise, can be easier achieved by shifting to an internal locus of control."

"Rather than blaming your financial situation on bad luck, a broken system, or your parents’ negative influence, determine which choices you made or didn’t make brought you to where you are, and make some new ones."
