What is the most important thing to carry with you all the time?

View all responses

The most important thing for you to carry in life is the will to live. To live is to experience life at every turn, both the good and the bad. To sit with disappointment and learn from past mistakes. To fail time and time again and get back up and try again as the great Aaliyah once said. This is how we grow, this is how we do more than just survive. To push beyond our comfort zone and not be afraid to be told no. A simple redirection is all you need. But to stop trying after failing once? It is ultimate failure. In everything you do make sure you can say at the end of the day that you tried your best. Not just attempted something but actually gave it your all. Otherwise what’s the point in even beginning. In life there will be many turns, the highs will be high and the lows will be terribly low. At the end of the day, if you can rest your head down and feel accomplished, this is success.
