#strive

Press forward. Do not stop, do not linger in your journey, but strive for the mark set before you. ↗

You are capable of more than you know. Choose a goal that seems right for you and strive to be the best, however hard the path. Aim high. Behave honorably. Prepare to be alone at times, and to endure failure. Persist! The world needs all you can give. ↗

— E. O. Wilson
