“I have always been inspired by the results I see from applying myself. Although occasional failures can be fundamental in the growing process, success as a result of hard work provides unmatched fulfillment. When I am truly passionate about something, I want to achieve nothing short of the best. I want to feel I have given maximum effort to the endeavor. I never want to feel like I could’ve worked harder or done more.”
