Courage To Succeed

[nycgal85]

"To dream anything that you want to dream.
That's the beauty of the human mind.
To do anything that you want to do.
That is the strength of the human will.
To trust yourself to test your limits.
That is the courage to succeed."

              Bern and Edmond

Here's another quote dealing with the courage to succeed:

The sea is dangerous and its storms terrible.
But these obstacles have never been
sufficient reason to remain ashore.

Unlike the mediocre, intrepid spirits seek victory
over those things that seem impossible.

It is with an iron will that they embark,
on the most daring of all endeavors,
to meet the shadowy future
without fear and conquer the unknown.

--Ferdinand Magellan, explorer

why is it the closer you get to success the more the people around you try to discourage you or actually try to stop you? before i told my spouse what i was doing it was fine then after i told, the disc about making pennies began,  then fights and now getting my work materials and destoying them. it like they fear you might need them or it might be hard to control you thru berating you
