There are no other opportunities to keep growing and improving, and yet it’s growth that generates happiness, not a long list of arbitrary achievemen… - Mark Manson

Who you are is defined by the values you are willing to struggle for.

While most people whittle their days chasing another buck, or a little bit more fame and attention, or a little bit more assurance that they're right or loved, death confronts all of us with a far more painful and important question: What is your legacy? How will the world be different and better when you're gone? What mark will you have made? What influence will you have caused? They say that a butterfly flapping its wings in Africa can cause a hurricane in Florida; well, what hurricanes will you leave in your wake?

To anyone who owns their mistakes and learns from their failures, I salute you.
