I Have a Vision – Draft

Have you ever thought about your hopes and dreams?
Where do you see yourself in five years time?
What do you aspire to be? What goals do you have?

You only live once.
Why not live it to the fullest.
Don’t waste a minute of everday.

You could be the greatest.
Be the best singer, best athlete, best designer, best scientist, best engineer, best business person…
You could be rich, famous, powerful…
You can travel the world.
