Let me tell you something you already know.
The world ain’t all sunshine and rainbows.
It’s a very mean and nasty place and I don’t care how tough you are, it will beat you to your knees and keep you there permanently if you let it.
You, me, or nobody is gonna hit as hard as life.
But it ain’t about how hard you hit.
It’s about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward.
How much you can take and keep moving forward.
That’s how winning is done!
Now if you know what you’re worth then go out and get what you’re worth.
But ya gotta be willing to take the hits, and not pointing fingers saying you ain’t where you wanna be because of him, or her, or anybody!
Cowards do that and that ain’t you!
You’re better than that!
– Rocky Balboa!
Learn to Learn!
Be humble enough to acknowledge that you do not know, when you do not know. Be open to learning. Avoid making excuses for ignorance; strive to increase your knowledge. The person you were at 22 does not get to decide who you have to be for the rest of your life....
