The old saying “The early bird catches the worm.” show us the importance of planning, working hard and trying constant. To achieve outstanding results, most people must plan ahead and work hard to overcome all kind of difficulties.
That has been my own experience, either. When I first started high school, I seldom passed my exams, so I never prepared well.
