If you have a clear dream and a clear purpose—if you hold on to them firmly—the way forward will surely open.Mahatma Gandhi

Mahatma Gandhi, known as a leader of the Indian independence movement who advocated nonviolence and peace.

Even after being imprisoned many times, he stood by his convictions, and as the father of India’s independence, his words seem to carry the energy to overcome adversity and hardship.

If you firmly hold on to your own “dream” and “purpose,” the path will surely open—an encouraging message.

Because graduation is a milestone in life, these words resonate even more deeply and may have the greatest impact.

Great Quotes 22: Steve Jobs #shorts #quotes

What’s more, he also founded NeXT and Pixar Animation Studios.

The world is full of hardships, but it’s also full of ways to overcome them.Helen Keller

Helen Keller: "Although the world is full of suffering, it is also full of the overcoming of it."

Helen Keller, who lived with multiple disabilities, was also active in politics and as an advocate for the rights of people with disabilities.

Her life was adapted into a film, The Miracle Worker, starring Anne Bancroft.

In these words of hers, I feel the weight of a life that knew great hardship.

I also sense an optimistic tone that only she—someone who has overcome adversity—could express.

In a new world, there may be times when, as a new employee, you feel like saying, “Maybe I can’t do this,” or when, at a new school, you feel lonely and think, “Maybe I’m not cut out for this.” At such times, I hope you’ll remember her—and these words of hers.
