Every step you take toward the top is possible because of all the little steps you took in the past. You can climb the mountain, but do it slowly, slowly.

Before Everything Happens, 
We Must First Begin.

Doing the work to transform your dreams into reality is like walking across the earth. It can be that hard, and it can take that long. If you walk from the North Pole to the South Pole, at one point you will go through the desert. It is part of the journey.

People become great only in the face of adversity.

The only way to thrive in the future is to focus on what you love, develop knowledge and skills in the service of your passion, and be relentless in doing the work.

We cannot find peace when the mind rages war against the heart, when we fight with our thoughts the pull of our love.
