F. FAILURE (and the power of positive thinking)
“Failure is a part of life. But figuring out what to do from there is the hardest part … People fall short of their goals all the time, and I think that’s important for everyone to realize and deal with and move forward. This is where most of the growth happens” (Zeeman, Carling).
