“I drive myself to learn by setting goals that are nearly unreachable. The point isn't really to reach these goals, but to use these goals as a north star to guide my life. Every day, I am given the opportunity to make progress towards them. Each challenge I face while trying to make progress teaches me new things. I may never reach the goals I set, but what I learn by even trying to reach them is invaluable.”
