\u00a0 \u00a0Throughout his life, man strives toward growth and development. In the course of this, he might make wrong decisions or choose irresponsible friends. Yet, this is not the end: for as long as you live, you have a chance to change your path.<\/span>\u00a0You cannot tear a single page of your life; yet, you can fill it with new chapters within which you prove to the world that you have changed.<\/span><\/span><\/h2>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0However, to write a new chapter, you need to understand the old ones quite well. Also, you have to set your new image, plan your steps, and decide what you want to do. Thus, you can write a new chapter in your life, in like manner many great people did.<\/span><\/h2>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0For instance, Sir Isaac Newton was born three months after his father\u2019s death: on January 4, 1643, at a hamlet in Lincolnshire. At the age of three, his mother left him in his grandmother\u2019s custody that she might remarry.<\/span><\/h2>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0Newton started his academic career at the age of twelve. It ended when he was seventeen whereby he left The King\u2019s School at Grantham. He returned home to find his mother widowed. She was planning that his future be no different from his father\u2019s. The latter was a farmer! Yet, a master at The King\u2019s School, Henry Stokes, convinced his mother to allow him continue his education. Thus, Newton started writing a new chapter in his life. He did his best and became one of the best students. He was admitted to Trinity College, Cambridge.<\/span><\/h2>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0In Newton\u2019s life book, there are many great chapters: for he became a renowned scientist, and one of the most famous contributors to physics and mathematics. Even more, he discovered many laws, like that of Universal Gravitation. Hence, Newton, the poor farmer, became Fellow of the Royal Society, a member of the British Parliament, and so on.<\/span><\/h2>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0You have your life before you. You cannot undo previous days, but you can still plan for new ones.<\/span><\/h2>\n
