Quotes by Matshona Dhliwayo

You were given the problems you have because you can solve them.You were given the burdens you have because you can carry them.You were given the trials you have because you can overcome them.You were given the opponents you have because you can beat them.You were given the enemies you have because you can conquer them.

Dream the impossible.See the impossible.Pursue the impossible.Achieve the impossible.

Follow your dreams, not the crowd.

Crawl in faith, and you will end up walking.Walk in faith, and you will end up jogging.Jog in faith, and you will end up running.Run in faith, and you will end up sprinting.Sprint in faith, and you will end up soaring.

When success is one thought away, think it.When success is one word away, speak it.When success is one deed away, perform it.When success is one step away, take it.When success is one moment away, seize it.

Take one step towards excellence,and success will take ten towards you.Take ten steps towards excellence,and success will take a hundred towards you.Take a hundred steps towards excellence,and success will take a thousand towards you.

To be profitable, practice diligence.To be successful, practice excellence.To be influential, practice intelligence.To be honorable, practice prudence.To be blissful, practice kindness.To be joyful, practice goodness.

Believe in yourself.Carve your own path.Build your own dreams.Be your own hero.

If you are a musician,sing to one as if you were singing to a million.If you are a dancer,dance to one as if you were dancing to a million.If you are a performer,perform to one as if you were performing to a million.

Dream what others do not.Imagine what others have not.Do what others will not.Achieve what others could not.
