"Perseverance is a great element of success. If you only knock long enough at the gate, you are sure to wake up somebody."

Motivator: It is tempting 2 think that u can have something for nothing. It is tempting 2 think that u can take shortcuts. When we're tempted 2 do what we know we should not, it is a deception. We see the reward, obsess over it, and mentally build it up bigger than life, completely out of proportion 2 reality. At the same time we fail 2 c the significantly bigger downside. Being positive does not mean ignoring the negative consequences of our actions. Living positively comes from avoiding the negative consequences by refraining from the destructive behavior which surely leads 2 them. The next time u r tempted 2 act against ur own good judgment, remember that it is a lie, a deception 4 which YOU will ultimately and unavoidably suffer.
