Destiny and fate are of one’s own making, and riches and happiness are rarely found at the end of an easily-traversed path.
Until you take the first step forward, failure remains reassuringly impossible.
I should become happier at what I do and leave others happier than before they’d met me.

In this world of half-jobs and liars, I will prevail.
Dreaming and becoming are completely separate parts of the process. However, they are both as important as each other. Never discount how powerful your dreams are. If you cannot visualise what it is you wish to become, then the brain doesn't have the first clue how to get you there.
