To keep society hopeless is to destroy its purpose and therefore its discipline. A person without discipline will not harbour any plans for the future, in turn spending resources on comfort and enjoyment rather than on the building and creation of their dreams.

Motivation will not always be your copilot. It takes the dark days off and lingers in the shadows of the early mornings.

It's a myth that everything should be balanced at all times. The idea that you can allocate a certain amount of time and energy to each area of your life equally is flawed.

If we always received what we expected, it would defeat the purpose of being human. We are designed to ride the waves of success and defeat with equal grace. To desire something and reach for it is to fully express ourselves, regardless of the outcome. This is the proverbial journey.
