SUCCEED

The road to success is never a straight line. There are potholes and divots, twists and turns, detours and full stops.

There are canyons and craters, and large bodies of water to cross by way of a narrow and perilous looking bridge.

And if that weren't enough, try to cross the narrow bridge and you will find trolls hiding underneath!

Trolls... They cast their stones and they swing their axes. They try to collapse the bridge altogether!

So what is one to do now? Should we turn back, change course, and give up all hope of ever reaching our destination?

Nay.

Begin your journey and cross your bridge. Yes. The bridge is narrow and the way is perilous, but the trolls, their stones are made of sand, and their axes are made of nothing but twigs.

Be your own biggest fan and encourage yourself along the way.

For every "no" you hear, tell yourself yes three times. And when someone tries to drag you down, be sure to stand at least one inch taller every time.

No one knows your story, and no one knows your journey like you do.

We are honored to be the platform where you can share your success, your struggles, and speak your truth in an open and honest way. We are honored to be the place where you can set your record straight and inspire others in their individual journeys.

It's This Time Magazine! Here they get the story straight from the horse's mouth.

And of the trolls hiding under the bridge, will they succeed?

Neigh...... (jovial laugh)

Model Magic

We are pleased to introduce to you
Supermodel Lina Burskya,

Thank you for being with us today, tell us about your life as a model.

When I was 5 years old I came to my mom and I said I'm gonna be a top model. And then I won the competition Miss Beauty of Russia at age 19. After I got signed with top model agencies around the world.

I love to collaborate and work with talented teams while I have photo-shoots. Everyone is so unique and creative, it inspires me. I enjoy traveling to different places as I model. It has opened me up to the person I am in a new way. I always discover something interesting and it's always fascinating.

I want to inspire people to follow their dreams and do what they really love. You know I was a girl from a small town in the North of Russia. It's like "mission impossible" to start the life of your dreams when you are from a poor family. And I am not ashamed to say that I picked glass bottles to buy bread when I was a child. And now I'm on Billboard in Time Square and around the world. I believe I can help more children through social media who have health problems but no money to cure. I can't describe how important it is to do charity and support each other.

"Everyone has their own story to tell. And so far, mine has been anything but ordinary! I navigated my share of stumbling blocks along the way (especially in the early days). But there was always one constant—the drive to perfect my craft and gain the skills to become who I am. I've never lost my desire to learn and, even now, I'm still honing with each new challenge. "
