The communities and societies we live in are stuck up in the stereotypical thoughts that label prisoners as convicts that can never transform their lives to better.Do we ever sit down and think of the mistakes and misconducts we have made and be forgiven for and given a second chance.

The public relations practitioner of Prisoners Education Trust have shown that the is a life after release. The Prisoners Education Trust is  a movement that has been established to show us that people behind bars are not the monsters we seem to think they are.It shows us that these people have the abilities to be tomorrow's leaders as well.The trust provides access to broader learning opportunities for prisoners,to enhance their chances of building a better life after release.Hence we find well known known celebrites like Kenny Kunene (South Africa), founder and owner of ZAR empire,a well known South African entertainment business that is doing well.Kenny Kunene was in imprisoned  for fraud but he took the opportunity whilst in prison to educate himself and become a better person which his release took him to the next level.It comes to the question where it shows that reading,studying and learning is for everyone whether be it a prisoner,prostitute and so on. It lies with the person in which route they take.
 Building a better life is always a choose that one encounters, not all prison mates are not willing to change..

Outcomes of having a positive mindset...

Envying other people's lives is a natural feeling that most of us experience at some point. When we know or bump into someone young, who owns a business/s, luxury house, car or anyhting that is worth a million or more, what comes to mind? Jealousy and intimidiation or inspiration and motivation?

Today we as the youth are court up in the fantasy of fantasising about other young people's lives who have made it into success. The question is what are we doing to reach that point?  In most cases we find that these young people that we look up too whether it be business woman/man, Tv personalities or maybe our cousins,siblings or whoever, had to work really hard to get to where they are in life. One of the factors that contribute to their success is determination, sacrifice and perserverance. Sacrificing our sleep or nightouts for studying, learning or reading isn't the coolest thing one can think of. What we dont think of is the outcomes that one can benefit from this. Have we ever noticed that those students that sacrifice their time to learn,study and read  and we thought they are boring are those in 3 years time we see driving luxury cars and living the luxury lives that we've been longing for.

It shows that we are the one's that choose what and how we want to end. It really isn't a pleasant feeling when one has to do a 3 year course for 5 years while all those that we set in class with have made it in life.

Are we willing to sacrifice our lives for a positive outcome where we will be those that the upcoming generation look up to or are we going to keep on envying other people's lives and keep on hoping?

THE CHOICE DEPENDS ON US..
