Never say any man is hopeless.
Go on doing good, thinking holy thoughts continuously; that is the only way to suppress base impressions. Never say any man is hopeless, because he only represents a character, a bundle of habits, which can be checked by new and better ones. Character is repeated habits, and repeated habits alone can reform character.

It is love that pays.

IDEAS CURATED BY
CURATOR'S NOTE
I am what I repeatedly do. I am good because I do good repeatedly. I will win because I focus on small wins that are real and do not think on lofty goals to crush in the future. The future is now. Give yourself a chance to live the character you respect and want to be respected by others. You are in control, you create your destiny through your character, that in turn is created by the daily unnoticeable habits you do for yourself. You can do it!
