But it’s important to remember that setbacks, failures, and tragedy are a part of life.
Whether we manage to find joy and success in the daily struggle of life
is largely dependent on our ability to persevere through even the toughest adversity without ever giving up.
“We must accept finite disappointment, but we must never lose infinite hope.”
“The gem cannot be polished without friction,
nor man perfected without trials.”
“Tough times never last,
but tough people do.”
“It is only in our darkest hours that we may discover the true strength of the brilliant light
“In three words I can sum up everything I’ve learned about life.
It goes on.”
BEST SPEECH EVER.... ROCKY.....
Let me tell you something you already know.
The world ain't all sunshine and rainbows.
It's a very mean and nasty place
and I don't care how tough you are it will beat you to your knees
and keep you there permanently if you let it.
You, me, or nobody is gonna hit as hard as life.
But it ain't about how hard ya hit.
It's about how hard you can get it
and keep moving forward.
How much you can take and keep moving forward.
That's how winning is done!
Now if you know what you're worth then go out and get what you're worth.
But ya gotta be willing to take the hits,
and not pointing fingers saying you ain't where you wanna be because of him, or her, or anybody!
Cowards do that and that ain't you!
You're better than that!

There will be times in your life where you’re challenged,
where nothing seems to be going right,
where tragedy strikes and you’re left to pick up the pieces.
In some cases,
being strong is simply about being able to persevere through extreme adversity.
It can be something horrific like the tragic loss of a loved one,
or something difficult and trying like getting laid off.
It can also be emotional trauma,
like recovering from a divorce or a tough break up.
These experiences leave us feeling weak and hopeless.
But that’s no reason to stay down for long.
No matter what you’re going through in life,
other people just like you have gone through the same or worse
and come out stronger on the other side.
It’s times like these you need to be strong and never give up.

Success isn’t measured by money or power or social rank.
Success is measured by your discipline and inner peace.
Suffering usually relates to wanting things to be different from the way they are.
Nobody who ever gave his best regretted it.
At the end of the day, vigorous self examination is the greatest form of maturity.
Life isn’t about getting and having,
it’s about giving and being.
Be happy in the moment, that’s enough.
Each moment is all we need, not more.

Sometimes you’ve got to emotionally let go of the things that once meant a lot to you,
so you can move beyond the past and the pains they bring you,
and open the next chapter in your life.
Moving on doesn’t mean forgetting,
it means you choose happiness over hurt.
In life,
you get what you put in.
Everything comes back around.

When you can forgive, yourself and others,
and stop the imprisonment,
you’re creating the love of your life.
Life will never be perfect, no matter how hard you try.
Even if you pour your heart and soul into it,
you will never have that perfection you seek.
There will always be broken hearts,
there will always be days where nothing goes right.
But you must accept
and learn that even the most imperfect things
will always be made better with love and laughter.

You are responsible for how you feel
no matter what someone does to you.
Remember,
you are always in control of your thoughts
so choose to feel confident and adequate
rather than angry and insecure.
If you want your life to change,
your choices and actions must change.
Every day brings a chance to start over.

DELAYING GRATIFICATION:
is a process of scheduling the pain and pleasure of life
in such as way as to enhance the pleasure by
meeting and experiencing the pain first and getting it over with.
It is the only decent way to live >
When we teach ourselves & others discipline,
we are teaching them and ourselves how to suffer and also how to grow.
There are 4 tools:
delaying gratification,
acceptance of responsibility,
dedication to the truth
and balancing.

When you find yourself cocooned in isolation and despair
and cannot find your way out of the darkness,
remember that this is similar to the place where caterpillars go to grow their wings
.Of all the things that can be stolen from you
your possessions, your youth, your health, your words, your rights
what no one can ever take from you is your freedom to choose what you will believe in,
and who and what your heart will love.
Even though you cannot control everything that happens,
you can control your attitude toward what happens.
And in that,
you will be mastering change rather than allowing it to master you.
Sometimes you just need to relax, breathe, let go,
and just live in the moment.

Hold fast to dreams,
for if dreams die,
life is a broken winged bird that cannot fly.
The question for each person to settle is not what he would do if he had means,
time, influence and educational advantages;
the question is what he will do with the things he has.
The moment a person ceases to dream
or to bemoan his lack of opportunities
and resolutely looks his conditions in the face,
and resolves to change them,
he lays the corner-stone of a solid and honorable success.

The essence of the Way is detachment.
Whatever feelings arise
whether pleasant, unpleasant, or neutral
abide contemplating impermanence in those feelings,
contemplate fading away,
relinquishment,
letting go of all those feelings.
Contemplating this one does not cling to anything in this world.
When not clinging, there is no agitation.
When not agitated one personally attains Nibbana
.The Pali word Nibbana is formed of Ni and Vana.
Ni is a negative particle
and vana means lusting or craving.
"It is called Nibbana,
in that it is a departure from the craving which is called vana, lusting."
Literally, Nibbana means non-attachment.
From a metaphysical standpoint Nibbana is deliverance from suffering.
From a psychological standpoint Nibbana is the eradication of egoism.
From an ethical standpoint Nibbana is the destruction of lust, hatred and ignorance.

The MAN in the ARENA: It is not the critic who counts;
not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles,
or where the doer of deeds could have done them better.
The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena,
whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood;
who strives valiantly;
who errs, who comes short again and again,
because there is no effort without error and shortcoming;
but who does actually strive to do the deeds;
who knows great enthusiasms,
the great devotions;
who spends himself in a worthy cause;
who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement,
and who at the worst, if he fails,
at least fails while daring greatly,
so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls
who neither know victory nor defeat.

DON’T QUIT
When things go wrong, as they sometimes will,
When the road you're trudging seems all uphill,
When the funds are low and the debts are high,
And you want to smile, but you have to sigh,
When care is pressing you down a bit-
Rest if you must, but don't you quit.
Life is queer with its twists and turns,
As every one of us sometimes learns,
And many a fellow turns about
When he might have won had he stuck it out.
Don't give up though the pace seems slow -
You may succeed with another blow.
Often the goal is nearer than
It seems to a faint and faltering man;
Often the struggler has given up
Whe he might have captured the victor's cup;
And he learned too late when the night came down,
How close he was to the golden crown.
Success is failure turned inside out -
The silver tint in the clouds of doubt,
And you never can tell how close you are,
It might be near when it seems afar;
So stick to the fight when you're hardest hit -
It's when things seem worst that you must not quit.
