Quotes to ponder:

"Failure happens. You only fail when you refuse to get back in the game."

"The short and easy road is often the quickest route to failure. Taking the hard and long road is the only real way to succeed."

"Motivation serves only the limited purpose of giving you a quick initial impulse to take action. There is a better way. It’s the old-fashioned virtue called discipline."
