**“I cannot remember the last time I felt this positive.**

**“It has been a joy to wake up every morning this week and actually look forward to the day instead of dreading it.”**

**“I know now that I have been my own worst enemy, I can see a future for myself at last and if that future is going to be bright then that is down to me.”**

I would like to express my deep gratitude for this course on personal growth, it was very valuable. It helped me realize how important our thinking is in achieving our true potential. And we need to change the way we see things - to change the way we think. Our challenge is to improve our self-image constantly, so that we can grow into it.
