I Can't Make This Up
by Hart, Kevin · 48 highlights
It’s okay to fail, but it’s not okay to quit.
Your goal is to learn from these challenges without letting them diminish your motivation. The secret to accomplishing this is simple: Let yourself be driven by your will to succeed rather than your fear of not succeeding.
Know that your patience will always be tested, and if you can pass that test, you will be tested again and again, until the rare few left standing reap the rewards.
Even if someone has done something that seems harmful to you, you still have the option of handling it in a classy way by responding logically instead of emotionally.
Every experience you have is a gift created to teach you a lesson. If you learn and implement that lesson in your life, then you get to receive the next gift.
In this world, there is nothing but life lessons. Pay attention to them and the world will open itself up to you.
Positivity: What you put out is what you get back. If you want to achieve positive goals and experience positive relationships, then put out positivity. If someone else is putting out negativity, then maneuver around them like you would a puddle on the ground.
If you want to get far in life, then never get too comfortable. Don’t stop, don’t rest, don’t be satisfied. As soon as you get comfortable, you’re pressing a brake and halting your forward motion.
