At the end of the day, all you can hope for is to go on. The older I get, the more I realize that just keeping on keeping on is what life's all about.

I feel, in the end, as if everything I've done has been a failure.

I'm not big on looking back beyond the moment in which decisions and events occur. I'm always pushing forward.

I think about all my successes and failures, and sometimes the failures stick in your head as much as the wins. But you do move on.

I have tried to keep on with my striving because this is the only hope I have of ever achieving anything worthwhile and lasting.

Believe me, my journey has not been a simple journey of progress. There have been many ups and downs, and it is the choices that I made at each of those times that have helped shape what I have achieved.

I am still where I started. I am still struggling. In fact, the struggle has only got bigger. I always try to go beyond my means, and this where the struggle comes in.

There are still many things to work on - the start, the transition, the finish. I am not just going to sit around and wait.

I've come to believe that all my past failure and frustration were actually laying the foundation for the understandings that have created the new level of living I now enjoy.
