"Let me tell you something you already know.
The
world
ain’t all sunshine and rainbows. It’s a
very
mean and nasty
place, and I don’t care how tough you are, it will beat you
to your knees and keep you there permanently
if
you
let it. You, me, or nobody is gonna hit as hard as life. But it
ain’t about how hard you hit. It’s about how hard you
can get hit and keep
moving
forward;
how much you can take and keep moving forward. That’s how
winning is done! Now, if you know what you’re worth, then
go out and get what you’re worth. But you gotta be willing
to take the hits, and not pointing fingers saying you ain’t
where you wanna be because of him, or her, or anybody. Cowards do
that and that
ain’t
you.
You’re better than that!"
