Success - it is not the position where you are standing, but which direction you are going.

Only some spelling and punctuation problems:

1.   I myself am an English learner.
2.   The road is going to be tough for him.
3.   We are no longer confined to local resources.

Hi, I'm not an expert but here's my 2 cents:

'1.   I, myself, am an English learner.' I don't believe the 'myself' is necessary in this case. If you're trying to stress that you are an english learner too, then it should be, "I, too, am an english learner.'

2.   The road is going to be tough for him. I believe that statement is commonly known as, "The road ahead is going to be tough for him", if you're talking about a part of his life or such.

3.   We are no longer confined to local resorces. That one seems fine to me, but it should be 'resources' instead of 'resorces'.

That's my input, but I would strongly advise that you confirm it with another person.

Hope that helps : >
