Be willing to give, to sacrifice, to dedicate all that you are to your goal. Don’t fear obstacles you may encounter or the setbacks you will face, rather use them and learn from them, turn them into stepping stones towards your destination. Your true measure isn’t merely the accomplishment, it’s how you approached the challenge, what you gave to the endeavor. You will fail at something, you will falter at some point, understand that. These are the consequences of any effort, accept and embrace it. The question isn’t whether or not you will fall, because you will. The question is what you do afterwards.
