Quotes to ponder:
"The reason most people don’t succeed is because they are more committed to their current identity than to a desired future identity."
"Your behavior is not based on the present, but on the future you are most committed to."
"Most people are being driven by the past and by the current environment they are in, rather than by a clear and chosen future."
