Let go of your attachment to being right, and suddenly your mind is more open. You're able to benefit from the unique viewpoints of others, without being crippled by your own judgment. Mistakes are part of the dues that one pays for a full life. It's never too late—in fiction or in life—to revise. There are two ways of meeting difficulties. You alter the difficulties or you alter yourself to meet them. To love what you do and feel that it matters—how could anything be more fun? Failure, failure is an event, never a person. Failure is a detour, not a dead-end street. Failure is simply the opportunity to begin again, this time more intelligently. Failure should be our teacher, not our undertaker. Failure is delay, not defeat. It is a temporary detour, not a dead end. All life is an experiment. Believe that life is worth living and your belief will help create the fact. Life is easy, but don't take it easy. I arise in the morning torn between a desire to improve the world and a desire to enjoy the world. This makes it hard to plan the day. In three words I can sum up everything I've learned about life. It goes on. Life is an opportunity, benefit from it. Life is beauty, admire it.Life is bliss, taste it. Life is a dream, realize it.Life is a challenge, meet it. Life is a duty, complete it.Life is a game, play it. Life is a promise, fulfill it.Life is sorrow, overcome it. Life is a song, sing it.Life is a struggle, accept it. Life is a tragedy, confront it.Life is an adventure, dare it. Life is luck, make it.Life is too precious, do not destroy it. Life is life, fight for it. You cannot discover the purpose of life by asking someone else - the only way you'll ever get the right answer is by asking yourself.
