beauty of darkness

All great people have gone through hell.

All great individuals have endured their share of challenges. In our world, where we constantly compare ourselves through the touch of our phones, we've forgotten the effort it takes to achieve what we see on our screens.

History repeatedly demonstrates that life consists of a sequence of hardships, much like the way Marcus Aurelius overcame his own struggles. Bad times, though daunting, he embraced them. A modern example would be David Goggins.

Let's make it easy for you —

Remember the time you studied hard for an exam and aced it the next morning?

Remember the months of practice that made you perform like a miracle on the match day?

Remember how much you hated being in that constant place of stress or pain?

That's what greatness feels like.

Dark times create resilient individuals.

Darkness may be seen as the pit that we have dug, but realize the only way out of it is greatness.

Life ends the moment you die. It's all about what you make of it now. When you die, nothing will matter, but as long as you live, it will haunt you.

All the greatest love stories were about loss.

All the greatest winner stories were about sacrifice.

All the successful life stories were about comebacks.

The obstacles in our way are what shape our journeys.

If you go by your feelings, acknowledge that no feeling is final. The dark emotions add more flavor to the good ones.

The world doesn't care about a loser's story who quit, so don't quit at your dark moments.
