I love this quote because for me, it is easier to take the easy path. But what I've learned is that if I try and fail, then I will get a good feeling because I tried. But if I am scared of trying, then I will always wonder, "What if I had tried, would I have made it?" Things in my life have happened just because I chose to try. Someone told me that 90% of success in just showing up.

"What makes a man a man? It is the commitment that he makes in life, to forge a legacy that will stand the test of time. A man of success doesn't need friends to help him to build his empire for he knows in himself that he was destined for greatness. He is chosen amongst the millions to make a change, to wield a revolution towards mankind, to be what no man can imagine. But to be that man, he must bleed for the sacrifices that he makes, to believe only in himself and not the opinions of the undeserving for he knows that the actions he makes he's always right and just. What makes a man a man? The answer lies within you for you are that man."
