“The hard part is not the dream or the idea; it is the doing. It is the driving need that determines
ones chances. You must have a reason – a purpose – for why you want the outcome and why 
you’re willing to do the work to get it. The purpose can be almost anything, but it has to be there.”

The Person in the Arena

  -- T.R. Roosevelt"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 up short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but he who does actually strive to do deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at best knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who is at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid sods who neither know victory nor defeat."
