Henry Ford

to update, my 2020′s version 

“It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.” Theodore Roosevelt

Les Brown — 'Most people fail in life not because they aim too high and miss, but because they aimtoo low and hit.'

some people are so afraid to lose that they lose. 

Não julgue cada dia pela colheita que você obtém, mas pelas sementes que você planta. Ribert Louis Stevenson

If everyday you battle against you to get better/stronger/wiser, you cannot lose. you can only win!

To put away aimlessness and weakness, and to begin to think with purpose, is to enter the ranks of those strong ones who only recognize failure as one of the pathways to attainment; who make all conditions serve them, and who think strongly, attempt fearlessly, and accomplish masterfully.
