Like an ant, I will find my way round any obstacle. Like a child, I will persevere with pinpoint focus.

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.

I should become happier at what I do and leave others happier than before they’d met me.

The only time you have is the where and when of right now. There will always be good times, bad times, hard times, and complete disasters. However, there is no other option but to be where you are, when you are. That is a universal truth for everyone. The important thing is how you respond, what you decide to do, and when you decide to do it.

Everything you desire is always just outside your comfort zone, dear boy. If it wasn't you would already possess it, would you not?

Until you take the first step forward, failure remains reassuringly impossible.

It has nothing to do with the time being right or wrong. Storms just happen.
