I WOULD like to take this opportunity to thank all the people of Pill who supported me in the local election.
We continually face challenges – how we view them defines us! Do we choose to see the challenges as obstacles?
If we choose to see them as obstacles, then the challenges we face will be viewed as problems – problems that need to be overcome, along with all the negative connotations associated with problems.
A great deal of wasted energy can be spent focusing on a negative mindset – mindsets like ‘I can’t’, ‘I won’t’, ‘I don’t want to’ and ‘I shouldn’t have to’.
We in Pill, however, choose to see challenges as stepping-stones – opportunities that we have encountered along the way for us to use, to ‘step on’ so that we can achieve more, develop further and ultimately actualise more of our goals! I will continue to work hard for you, the people of Pill. Thank you again for your support.
Zafar Ismail (Tony), Cardiff Road, Newport
