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.
The difference between a boy and a man is responsibility.
Most of you reading this don't feel RESPONSIBLE for your life.
You are poor, uninteresting and weak compared to me.
And you take NO RESPONSIBILITY for it.
Deep down, you have somehow convinced yourself it is not your fault.
You've passed the responsibility to something outside of yourself.
Your parents, your childhood, your school, your genetics, your age, your circumstances or your god.
Some of you take partial responsibility, some you of are half-men, teenagers.
Unfortunately for you, this is a MANβS WORLD.
You will not make it very far unless you accept EVERYTHING IS YOUR FAULT.
Meaning not only are you a fucking loser.
Itβs your fault you're a loser.
You decided to be one.
Do you understand?
