“You might sometimes think that challenges are too big and you are too small… I always say: nobody can do everything, but everybody can do something. And if you actually get that thing right, and if you do it a proper way, you will be able to generate more belief in yourself and others believing in you, so it can have a bigger impact. Your mindset will determine whether you will be successful in life.”
Ahmad Alhendawi
Secretary-General, World Organization of Scout Movement
