A teenager realized her dream of becoming a professional model three years af?ter a serious car accident.
Marita Davies was on her way home from a party when the crash happened. The car that Marita took as a passenger was going the wrong way and crashed into another car driven by a drunken driver named David Hudson,which left her with a broken leg and back. It took the firefighters more than two hours to free the teenager from the damaged car before she was taken to hospital. Marita was in a wheelchair for a year after being bedridden for nine months.
Marita feared her dream of a modelling career was over. She said, "I was ex?tremely upset and shocked when I knew about my terrible injuries. I thought my dream of becoming a model was over. My leg and back were broken. The crash had broken my confidence and I became quiet and spent less time with other people. I was 16 ,and at that age all I wanted to do was to go out with my friends."
But as her health took a turn for the better,Marita finally came out of the wheelchair and learned to walk. She decided she would still try to follow her dream,and sent some photos off to some modelling agencies. She did a few unpaid jobs while studying at college. Soon,paid commercial modelling jobs started coming in. Marita was a bit doubtful at first,because the crash had left her with huge scars on her leg and back. She was worried that people wouldn't want her to model for them,but this didn't stop her.

Whatever your station is in life,everyone will face what I call the 3Cs:changes,challenges and choices. The following are some simple but powerful tips to help you make effective life adjustments.
A. 20 .
Most people see with their eyes but few people know how to observe. The difference between seeing and ob?serving is like the difference between reading and stud?ying.
