You will stand strong. You won’t back off. You won’t back down. You’ll make smart decisions. You won’t focus on what you don’t have, because what you do have—however little it may seem—is more than enough. And you will find that the process, not just the result but the process involved in becoming something that you once dreamed of, will also make you feel awesome about yourself—each and every day. Some people are successful. Some people are happy. You can be both.
