New Delhi, Feb.25 (ANI): It is possible to achieve anything if a person is qualified and determined with the will to make the right decisions and yes Nasa Astronaut Captain Sunita Williams says the same to the young girls in India who aspire to become like her.
" Why not do what you want to do? I see myself as an average person. I don't see myself as what I have done is extra ordinary. I just think you need to have determination, hard skin even at the time of failure," Williams told ANI here.
"I failed two college courses but then I learned from it. So if you want to be an astronaut why not? If you want to climb Everest then why not, I am sure you will find your way," she added.
Talking further about her fitness regime and running marathon in space, Williams credited her family for being so athletic which inspired her to be fit and a good swimmer.
