"There is no deep secret as to why some people fail to achieve what they want to get out of life most of the time whilst others frequently attain their wants and desires. It is often down to blind belief, sheer self-confidence and a downright doggedness not to settle for second best. As my dear mother used to tell me when I was growing up, 'You are better than second best, Billy. Always remember, see what you want, go for it and whatever anyone says or does to induce you to accept less, don't be temped to short-change yourself.' She was most certainly correct as I've always found that if one holds out long enough for whatever one wants, one invariable gets!" William Forde: July 12th, 2013.
