Mentoring by role models will go a long way in changing these dynamics. - Itunu Hotonu

You’ve got to believe in yourself.Don’t ever let anybody put you down.Even when it gets really rough ,don’t give up, because somewhere along the line you’re going to get where you need to be.

I had a dream to get to the top of my career and nothing was going to let me go off that dream. Sometimes it looked like a distant dream, sometime it would even fade to a dot in the horizon, sometime I would want to give up but the good thing was that I had a lot of supportive people who believed in me, people who, when the going got really rough, said to me, no, you cannot give up.

If you want to stay in the sun, you must be ready to put on sun glasses. If someone tells you, you are putting in more time, don’t listen. Just keep going. Get to the point where nobody can intimidate you. It will be scary sometimes but keep going.
