Oprah Winfrey can do anything, right? We know this, the world knows it and now, so does she!
Speaking to Parade Magazine, the media tycoon has said she moved on from an 'oh my God, what am I going to do' attitude to a 'I can do anything' approach. She says having her own television channel has helped made more of her dreams come true, as well as helping other people make their dreams a reality. That lady, what a heart she has!
Despite all she has achieved with her talk show, magazine and even a girls academy right here in South Africa, she acknowledges failure can happen. "What will be a failure is if nobody comes and watches this network. What others will perceive as failure is if some shows don't succeed. I'm concerned about the bigger overall picture: my belief that people are basically good and want to see the good in them reflected through their experiences and the shows that they watch. This is a gamble I'm taking. I believe that the banal state of television, the kind of insipid space that we're in - that you can have as many channels as we have and not find anything that really interests you - means that to a great extent we've lost our way."
Here's wishing her the best of luck with her new venture. If anyone can made it an uber success, Oprah can!
