I seriously wanted to punch this man in the face. I will use him as my inspiration while I exercise tonight and I imagine punching him in the face. And kicking him in the groin.
Bright planet In the morning sky Shining light Strength Hope Reminding me Of grace. I am so thankful For the kindness And generosity That shines Into the dark recesses Of my soul Dispelling doubt Love shines.
So I’ve been thinking a lot about failure lately. About how it builds resilience and how good it is for human growth. And how most adults try to avoid it like the plague. I’ve read articles oriented toward business leaders, listened to people who have worked at Stanford’s d school, and have tried to embrace…
