“I hated poverty. Poverty is more of choice than anything else, and i can change that (poverty). It depends upon how hard i want to work, and i decided that i would change it.”

-Dr.Ben Carson

Just because you were raised in poverty doesn't mean that you'll always stay there.Being raised in poverty does not mean you'll never be successful. You can be if you wanted to.  You can change your lifestyle with hard work and determination. Theres many doors that you can open. Some have so many stairs and it seems as if you will never get there, you eventually will. Other doors take you to the same spot you were before, they take you in circles, they take you nowhere. It's your choice to pick which one you want to open. Yes these doors have labels but will you choose wisely ? My point is that it doesnt matter where you are right now but where you're going.
