First they ignore you, then they laugh at you,
then they fight you, then you win. Accept challenges, so that you may feel the
exhilaration Adventure is worthwhile. Challenges are what make life interesting;
overcoming them is what makes life meaningful. Great things are easier than small things. Difficulties are meant to rouse, not discourage.
The human spirit is to grow strong by conflict. Twenty years from now you will be more
disappointed by the things you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So
throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade
winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover. Unless a man undertakes more than he possibly can
do, he will never do all that he can.
To succeed... you need to find something to hold
on to, something to motivate you, something to inspire you. Life's challenges are not supposed to paralyze
you, they're supposed to help you discover who you are. Challenges make you discover things about yourself
that you never really knew. They're what make the instrument
stretch - what make you go beyond the norm.
I have always grown from my problems
and challenges from the things that don’t work out; that’s when I’ve
really learned. Courage is resistance to fear, mastery of fear, not absence of fear. Accept a creature to be part coward... – Mark Twain
Don’t be afraid your life will end,
be afraid that it will never begin
