If you’re waiting for a boss or an editor or a college to tell you that you do good work, you’re handing over too much power to someone who doesn’t care nearly as much as you do.
The people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world are the ones who do.

“All your life you are told the things you cannot do. All your life they will say you’re not good enough or strong enough or talented enough; they will say you’re the wrong height or the wrong…
And so I have come to understand that strength, inner strength, comes from receiving love as much as it comes from giving it. (later in the same paragraph) God’s love will never change us if we don’t accept it.

He who trusts in himself is a fool, but he who walks in wisdom is kept safe.
