WORD FROM THE PUBLISHER AUGUST | SEPTEMBER 2019 LABOR DAY EDITION PHOTOGRAPHY: AMAN LEXIDOR A Letter To The People Who Didn’t Believe In Me! To all of the people who didn’t believe in me... First, I would like to say Thank You!!! You were the ones who brought me down and the ones who made me think I couldn’t achieve my goals. “ You made me question my intelligence, my skills, my drive, and my purpose!” There were periods of time when you laughed as I explained my aspirations. You condescendingly explained why I was not capable of certain things. Your negativity was the reason that I pushed myself harder in order to be successful. I wanted so badly to prove to you as well as everyone else who EVER doubted my capabilities, that I could & would do it. You are the reason I am standing here today, better and stronger than ever - and I would genuinely like to say, Thank You! See, most people get comfortable at a certain stage because they don’t want to deal with the emotional purging involved in up-leveling. Thank you for showing me that people in the world will doubt me, and that I will prove them wrong! I used your doubts to ignite my conviction, so that I would succeed. Your doubts made me want it more and gave me an “enemy” to fight against. The challenges you bombarded me with, unleashed my competitive juices and my desire to win. Thank You, for showing me that even when I fail, I am able to find the strength to get up and try again. AUG-SEP R.indd 46 30/08/2019 06:49:37
