But sometimes you'll triumph.

And along the way, the mistakes, they become wisdom.

They become courage.

Both of which are integral to any meaningful grand finale.

And as I make my way around the sun for the 36th time, the priority is to remember that these rides are not forever.

They are precious.

and that I have the strength to live accordingly.

Fearlessly.

Courageously.

My hope is that you find it within yourself to do the same.

To pull back the curtains and see now that failure was never the adversary.

No, not even close.

The adversary is an unwillingness to make the most of your moments.

The adversary is freezing amidst the constant hammering away of ticking clocks.

The adversary is the prospect of removing failure's mask years down the road, only to stare directly into the eyes of regret.

these outcomes constitute your greatest adversary.

So for the sake of all that is meaningful, go push into the questions and the risk and the curiosity that makes life worth living.

After all, it is not about failure.

There are moments in life that feel like endings.

But what if they're simply the next version of you?
