“May your choices reflect your hopes, not your fears.” - Nelson Mandela

Nelson Mandela is an inspiration to half the world. He taught us to believe in ourselves when no one did. This quote symbolizes that you have to make choices based on your hopes and not your fears. What if you dreamt of becoming a pilot, but you are afraid of heights? Then what would you choose, overcoming your fear and achieving your dream or becoming someone you didn't want to be? People can only guide us, but the steps are needed to be taken by us. We have to decide which road to take. 

'Two roads diverged in a wood, and 
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.'

The above quote is a part of a poem, the poet Robert Frost wrote. He exactly clarified what I am trying to explain. Overcoming your fears is the 'less traveled road' and becoming someone else is the 'most traveled road'. Choices are a very important part of our life. One choice can make all the difference.
