“….the brick walls are there to stop the people who don’t want it badly enough. They are there to stop the other people…..Brick walls are there for a reason. They give us a chance to show how badly we want something.”

Randy Pausch - The Last Lecture

I highly suggest reading the book or watching the actual lecture on YouTube!

I watched this lecture quite a while ago and had kind of forgotten about it. It was really good, and I think that I will watch it again for some more motivation. Thanks for the reminder!

"People often say that motivation doesn't last. Well, neither does bathing - that's why we recommend it daily." --Zig Ziglar

Lol! It's like trying to eating 7 apples, once a week, to keep the doctor away... it doesn't quite work like that!

“There comes a time when you have to stand up and shout: This is me damn it! I look the way I look, think the way I think, feel the way I feel, love the way I love! I am a whole complex package. Take me... or leave me. Accept me - or walk away! Do not try to make me feel like less of a person, just because I don't fit your idea of who I should be and don't try to change me to fit your mold. If I need to change, I alone will make that decision.
When you are strong enough to love yourself 100%, good and bad - you will be amazed at the opportunities that life presents you.”
--Stacey Charter

YES!!! I am not a cookie-cutter mold of anyone else, and if people don't like it, then tough! I am who I am! :happy:

"Time to nut up or shut up" ~Woody Harrelson

Basically the whole poem, but specifically:
If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew
To serve your turn long after they are gone,
And so hold on when there is nothing in you
Except the Will which says to them: 'Hold on!'
