When everything goes wrong, always look at what you have, instead of what you have lost. Because it's not what the world takes away from you that counts; it's what you do with what you have left.
Pain is part of growing.
Sometimes life closes doors because it's time to move forward. When times are tough, remind yourself that no pain comes without a purpose. Remember that there are two kinds of pain: pain that hurts and pain that changes you. When you roll with life, instead of resisting it, both kinds help you grow.
Every time you get hurt, you heal. After darkness there is always light – you are reminded of this every morning, but still you often forget, and instead choose to believe that the night will last forever. It won't. Nothing lasts forever.
Complaining changes nothing.
It's always better to attempt to do something great and fail than to attempt to do nothing and succeed. It's not over if you've lost; it's over when you do nothing but complain about it. If you believe in something, keep trying. Don't let the shadows of the past darken the doorstep of your future.
The best thing you can do is to keep going.
Don't be afraid to get back up—-to try again, to love again, to live again, and to dream again. Don't let a hard lesson harden your heart. Life's best lessons are often learned at the worst times and from the worst mistakes. There will be times when it seems like everything that could possibly go wrong is going wrong.
A. Everything in life is temporary.
B. And even if you fall short, keep going.
C. Your scars are symbols of your strength.

E. Here are a few tips to inspire you when you need it most.
F. That's a good thing because we often won't move unless life forces us to.
G. When you feel like quitting, remember that sometimes things can be right eventually.
