There is no elevator to success. You have to take the stairs.
Any success that will be worth it, will have hard work and dedication behind it ,I promise. The journey along the way may get tough and nearly impossible at times, but once you've reached that goal you'll see it's worth it.
See this kind of seems self explanatory, but we all forget just how much work we need for that dream to be achieved. We see people bringing out albums, books, products etc over night and we all think "That didn't take long, they are just lucky". When in actual fact they have worked hard for a long time upon releasing, but we just don't see that side to it, most of the time. So next time you pre-judge somebody who is more successful than you, just think of how much work they put to be there. Use that as an encouragement to reach your own goal perhaps. 
The imagery from this quote is so clever and I find it so inspiring. A stair case is made up of tiny little steps, that eventually lead you to your destination. Along the way you may find heights, sudden re-directions or even mental fatigue. But when you get to the top, you look down and think "Oh yeah, I made it here even if it was tough". Now obviously when you get to the top of a staircase you don't, but with our goals we should. The best advantage of taking the metaphorical stairs than the metaphorical elevator is that you can have complete control of when you want to stop and start and the pace you go at. Whereas an elevator may get to the destination quicker, it would be rushed and messy. 
So when you have those dreams or goals in your head, make them reality with your own hard work and dedication. But just please take the stairs and not the elevator :)
I wish every single one of you the best with those dreams you WILL achieve.

Comparision

By
So i guarantee everyone reading this has compared themselves to another person or object at least once. Comparison is very common in teenagers especially, but most of us do it. In a way it is only part of our instincts as we all get envious, but it is also really unhealthy. If you're constantly wishing to be something else, then you can't really ever love yourself can you? Then how do you expect somebody else too if you can't. There is a fine line between passively saying "I like her hair I wish mine fell like that" and saying "I like her hair, why can't I be like her. she's so much of a better person than me". There will be times where you will be jealous of somebody's appearance or their talent or personality etc. But their qualities or skills do not define your qualities or skills. What I mean by that Is just because somebody's qualities are high, it doesn't make you any better than them or any worse. Nobody can compare themselv

Are books losing popularity?

By
Are books losing popularity?  So personally i believe they are. Now let me explain my reasons why. So many years ago before technology most people would read books as a pastime out of enjoyment. Now that color TV'S, mobile phones and the internet are around less and less people are reading books. Also a high number of the population would prefer to watch the film as it's easier and requires less concentration. This means that the majority of people my generation (Late 1990's+) are just not interested in reading in fear of looking uncool and like a "nerd". Now obviously it is in the curriculum to read when you first start school, so most people can actually read they just chose not too. Me being an avid reader and lover of books cannot see this nonsense. but unfortunately it's the truth of today's society. So my second reasoning is fairly similar to the first as it's also down to technology. So i'm sure you've all heard of E-readers and ki

Religion...

By
Now I know religion is quite a conversational subject as every body has their own beliefs due to free will. But I would like to just explain it from my own belief and what I think on the matter. The religion I follow and believe in is Christianity and I have done for the past 8 months. Being a christian is a huge part of my daily life and I take pride in the fact I have a father as amazing as god. It's so reassuring to me that one day I will be reunited with god in heaven after serving him here on earth for many years. It saddens me that people get mocked, beaten up, even killed for believing and serving god. Most Christians mean no harm to anyone and all they wish to do is praise gods creations and spread the word of his gospel. Within my church family I know some pretty amazing people and I've had the pleasure of appearing in their lives due to god and I find that phenomenal that one god can have so much power. I believe that god gave his only son away to forgive the sins o
