Choose Your Destiny Poem by Dr Priyanka Krishnan

When life challenges you
What do you do?
When life troubles you
What do you do?

Do you rise?
Do you fall?
Do you collapse?
Do you repulse?

Do you fight back?
Do you dust off?
Do you buckle up?
Do you worry?

How tough are you?
How brittle are you?
How strong are you?
How weak are you?

Your choices will decide
What you will become
Your chosen path will decide
What will be your destination


Life is simple
For success, people work hard
For failure they work harder
It takes energy to be upset
It's easy to be happy
It takes years of negativity
To be depressed
It takes seconds to be positive

Decide what you choose to be
Decide where you want to be
Decide when you want to be
Become what you want to be

Only you will choose your destiny
So stop complaining
Only your mind is responsible
For every thought you conceive

Die today, forget your pain
Rise today work hard like an insane
Winners pay the price of sweat
Your own thoughts are your biggest threat

Abandon every easy road
Choose your hardships
Choose your life
You were born unique
Unleash your spirit
Release your caged soul
