Hay una verdad elementalque concierne a todos los proyectos de iniciativay cuya ignorancia hace fracasarinfinidad de ideas y planes espléndidos
y es que en el momento en queuno se compromete definitivamente,entra la providencia
Cualquier cosa que quieras,o sueñes que puedas hacer,comienza
La determinación tiene genio, poder, y magia.Comienza ahora...
