Dare To Dream

At high school, my friends called me “D for Demet.” That was my average grade. My teachers said that my literacy skills were weak and that I was a hesitant reader. The truth is, I didn’t believe in myself so nobody believed in me. At the end of year 10, an inspiring speech from the assistant principal made me realise that I could have the one thing I’d convinced myself I wasn’t good enough to achieve: success.
