What is it like to be you?

People always see in you what you see in yourself. So focus on the good and the beautiful. That is what you ultimately radiate to the world. That is the 'picture' others see.

It's not about winning or being successful in everything you do. What about the effort you put in? Acknowledge that you did your best even if the result is not what you expected. It is not just the result; the road to it also matters.

There is only one certainty in life, and that is that nothing stays as it is. Everything is constantly changing. When things are going well, we would like it to stay that way forever, but it doesn't. So seize the moment when it's there. Enjoy the moment when it is there.
