Thando Thabethe: Yes black girl it's possible!

Johannesburg- Thando Thabethe has some words of wisdom to share. 

It's not clear what prompted Thando's Instagram post, which delves into how many young black girls "think certain things are unachievable," but she does have an important message. 

Thando wants young women to understand that anything is possible if you understand the power of your mind and your dreams. 

"Once we begin to try and understand the power of our minds and of our dreams we open up ourselves to things others deem impossible," she wrote. 

Wise words, Thando!

I'm in awe at how many young black girls think certain thing are unachievable, how you need a man to propel your success or to afford you things. Once we begin to try and understand the power of our minds and of our dreams we open up ourselves to things others deem impossible. I ask myself if not me then WHO?!!! Dont try to dim others people's light because you are afraid of failing and of achieving...YOU are the prisoner of your own mind, if you decide to limit yourself that's on YOU. Leave the rest of us to live our best lives...YES BLACK GIRL ITS POSSIBLE
