"Virtue and decency are so nearly related that it is difficult to separate them from each other but in our imagination." -- Cicero

Motivator: A major source of discouragement is the mistaken assumption that the future = the past. It is difficult indeed 2 keep going when previous experience has produced so much disappointment. But the fact is that life does not have 2 follow a str8 line. At any point, it is possible 2 change direction. Great accomplishments often come on the heels of bitter disappointments. Rather than assuming that u're doomed bi ur past, consider all the ways u can create a bright future. Each day, each moment is a new opportunity, independent of what has gone before. Learn what u can bi looking back, but spend the bulk of YOUR time and attention looking forward.
