“Some of the hardest lessons
of life are being taught to you
when there’s the fear of losing
and the hope of winning
deep within you
- The waves of life”
― Jyoti Patel, ANAMIKA: BEYOND WORDS

“Take pride in your choices, not your gifts. ... This is something that's super-important for young people to understand, and for parents to preach to young people. It's really easy for a talented young person to take pride in their gifts: "I'm really athletic," or "I'm really smart," or "I'm really good at math."

That's fine. You should celebrate your gifts. You should be happy. But you can't be proud of them ... What you can be proud of is your choices.

How did you decide to use your gifts? Did you study hard? Did you work hard? Did you practice? The people who excel combine gifts and hard work, and the hard work part is a choice. You get to decide that. And that is something that when you're looking back on your life, you will be very proud of.”

“Because you are not willing to lose, you are losing.”
