Quotes to ponder:
"Failure is not a hard problem. It’s a label. Failure is in the past. Hard problems can be solved right now."
"The best way to get better, to get more known, to learn the subtleties of your art or your field or your sport, is to simply do it again."
"The thing you learn first is forgiveness. Then you move back to the present. Get healthy. Be around people you love. Start being creative again."
