"If you spend today regretting over something you should've done in the past, it is inevitable that one day you'll regret not making better use of this day. And guess what? The vicious cycle continues until you have no more days left!"
--- Written in 2005 by Sukhbir S. --- Bangkok, Thailand
It just sort of made sense because I realized that people who regretted what they did in the past, gave far too much importance to a day which they couldn't change and less importance to a day they could actually do something about. With Profoundest Love and Deepest Respect for Who You Are.
"I would like to tell you if you're disappointed or failed by something, please look back. It might be your little fault or somebody else's. You just want to get back to there and do it again and you'll be alright and feel proud to be successful."

"If others must fail for you to succeed, are you really succeeding? If you are, what have you accomplished? There is a false pretense in society that in order to succeed others must fail. Don't believe that. Motivation, along with hard work and kindness will lead you to true success and happiness."

This quote was written to help people understand that we live in a world full of others who believe that the only way to succeed is to step on other people. Together we can learn and teach that this belief is completely incorrect. The true ways to find success are in hard work, perseverance, and kindness. These, above all else, will lead you to happiness.
