2. Your Identity is Defined by What You Do
You are defined by what you do - and what you don& #39;t do.

3. Fear of Failure is Failure
Your worst enemy is your fear of failure.
"We can be truly successful only at something we& #39;re willing to fail at."
If you& #39;re afraid of failure, then you& #39;re not ready to succeed.
The only way to crush fear is through action.

4. Change is the Only Constant in Life
There& #39;s no such thing as "finding yourself."
You are always evolving and changing with your surrounding situations.
You& #39;ll probably never really know who you are - and that& #39;s ok because you& #39;ll always be discovering and learning.

It& #39;s good to strive for being better, but it& #39;s also important to stop and be grateful for what you have.
