You just do it. You force yourself to get up. You force yourself to put one foot before the other, and God damn it, you refuse to let it get to you. You fight. You cry. You curse. Then you go about the business of living. That’s how I’ve done it. There’s no other way.

Watch the thoughts

Embracing self-doubt
Quote
I have self-doubt. I have insecurity. I have fear of failure. I have nights when I show up at the arena and I’m like, ‘My back hurts, my feet hurt, my knees hurt. I don’t have it. I just want to chill.’ We all have self-doubt. You don’t deny it, but you also don’t capitulate to it. You embrace it.
Kobe Bryant

Make your own pace
Quote
A 4 year degree attained after 7 years is still a degree. A graduation at the age of 50 is still a graduation. A Mercedes bought at the age of 65 is still a Mercedes. Don’t let people bully you with their timelines of success. You can do it.
