The word âQueenâ describes Oprah perfectly. She is bold, brave, and takes on new challenges. Instead of fearing failure, just consider it as a step closer to success.
âWhen one door of happiness closes, another opens; but often we look so long at the closed door that we do not see the one which has been opened for us.ââ Helen Keller Â
There will be many ups and down this year. When you are feeling down, it is easier to feel miserable about it and think about what you could have done than to think about what you can do to change it. Her message is to let go and look at opportunities around you.
âIâm not afraid of storms, for Iâm learning to sail my ship.â ăŒÂ Louisa May Alcott
Remember this one when you are about to take a big step. Instead of staying inside your comfort zone, take on the challenge and learn how to overcome it.
âIt is our choices, Harry, that show what we truly are, far more than our abilities.â â J.K Rowling (Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets)
Some of you may remember this scene near the end of the movie when Harry Potter finds out that he shares many similarities with his enemy. Dumbledore replies by teaching him his choices are more important than his capabilities.

This is the same for anything in life. Instead of being jealous, make an effort so you will be satisfied with yourself.
