your mark on the world is hard. If
it were easy, everybody would do it.
But it’s not. It
takes patience, it takes commitment, and it comes with plenty of failure
along the way. The real test
is not whether you avoid this failure, because you won’t.
It’s whether you let it harden or shame you into inaction, or
whether you learn from it; whether you choose to persevere.” -Barack
