Your Dreams Start with Desire
Life Happens with Mahmoud Mahmoud
The dreams we will accomplish in our future will happen. However, it takes focus, discipline and massive action. But before dreams can come to reality there must first be desire. Desire is very powerful to accomplish what you want. It is within your power to go get it and remember that desire is powerful. It is within you for a reason. That same desire was not instilled in someone else. Your story is unique to you and no two people have the same story. So don't let your dreams and desire go wasted.
