Traducao (Portugues)

A chave da vida é desenvolver um GPS moral e emocional interno que diga qual caminho seguir. Porque de vez em quando você vai falhar. É inevitável. É a vida. Não existe fracasso. Fracasso é apenas a vida tentando nos mover em outra direção. Aprenda com cada erro. Porque cada experiência, especialmente seus erros, estão ali para te ensinar e te forçar a se aproximar de quem você deve ser. Transforme suas feridas em sabedoria. Você será ferido muitas vezes na vida. A coisa mais importante que aprendi é que o que você dá volta para você.
