Finish the quote!
•You will never achieve anything, if you don’t work hard at it.
•If you want to develop any skill, you have to practise (something) regularly.
•If you believe in yourself and your abilities, then you can achieve something.
•Some people dream of success while other people wake up and work hard at it.
•Success don’t come to you, you go with it.
•Focus on where you want to go, not on what you fear.
