The quote “Some people want it to happen; some wish it would happen; others make it happen” by Michael Jordan implies that some people want and wish for things. Then some try to do something to make it happen. You can achieve something in your life if you are passionate about it. If the past is anchoring you, then you must let it go because keeping regrets and disappointments will not help you make things happen. If you want to make something happen, then start working for it and earning it; that is the method by which Yasshmita earned the squash title.
Congratulation Yasshmita to make it happen!
