No matter what advantages you are born with-- money, intelligence, an appealing personality, a sunny outlook, or good social connections-- none of these provides a magic key to an easy existence. Somehow life manages to bring difficult problems, the causes of untold suffering and struggle. How you meet your challenges makes all the difference between the promise of success and the specter of failure.

Inspiration is that state in which mind and heart are connected.

Total self acceptance is empowering. It means allowing others to see you as they choose, without being offended.
