    “People give up so fast because they tend to look at how far they still have to go, instead of how far they have gotten.” ~ Unknown

      “I have walked that long road to freedom. I have tried not to falter; I have made missteps along the way. But I have discovered the secret that after climbing a great hill, one only finds that there are many more hills to climb. I have taken a moment here to rest, to steal a view of the glorious vista that surrounds me, to look back on the distance I have come. But I can only rest for a moment, for with freedom come responsibilities, and I dare not linger, for my long walk is not ended.” ~ Nelson Mandela

        “There is no easy walk to freedom anywhere, and many of us will have to pass through the valley of the shadow of death again and again before we reach the mountaintop of our desires.” ~ Nelson Mandela

          Your dream doesn't have an expiration date. Take a deep breath, and try again.

            If you aren't willing to work hard for it, then you probably don't really want it.

              “One of the things I learned the hard way was that it doesn’t pay to get discouraged.” ~ Lucille Ball

                “Be of good cheer. Do not think of today’s failures, but of the success that may come tomorrow. You have set yourselves a difficult task, but you will succeed if you persevere; and you will find a joy in overcoming obstacles. Remember, no effort that we make to attain something beautiful is ever lost.” ~ Helen Keller

                  "Our greatest glory is not in never falling, but in rising every time we fall." ~ Confucius

                    “Whatever you do, you need courage. Whatever course you decide upon, there is always someone to tell you that you are wrong. There are always difficulties arising that tempt you to believe your critics are right. To map out a course of action and follow it to an end requires some of the same courage that a soldier needs. Peace has its victories, but it takes brave men and women to win them.” ~ Ralph Waldo Emerson

                      “Just don’t give up trying to do what you really want to do. Where there is love and inspiration, I don’t think you can go wrong.” ~ Ella Jane Fitzgerald

                        “Fight one more round. When your arms are so tired that you can hardly lift your hands to come on guard, fight one more round. When your nose is bleeding and your eyes are black and you are so tired that you wish your opponent would crack you one on the jaw and put you to sleep, fight one more round – remembering that the man who always fights one more round is never whipped.” ~ James Corbett

                          “Hope begins in the dark, the stubborn hope that if you just show up and try to do the right thing, the dawn will come. You wait and watch and work: you don’t give up.” ~ Anne Lamott

                            “Nothing really worth having is easy to get. The hard-fought battles, the goals won with sacrifice, are the ones that matter.” ~ Aisha Tyler

                              Nothing worth having comes easy.

                                Ever Tried. Ever Failed. No Matter. Try Again. Fail Again. Fail Better. ~ Samuel Beckett
