“If you work hard and try your best absolutely anyone can do anything.”

“Life is mostly hard and sometimes we don't feel that we have accomplished anything at all. But if, in your everyday life, you do the absolute best at whatever you try, the accomplishment is in the doing”

“The common belief that everyone can do anything if they just try hard enough is a formula for inefficiency at best and for complete failure at worst.”

“Consider what you can do to assist your inner work, try to do it as you think best, but it's actually only going to be done by you storming it...”

“Humans are mysterious creatures. There comes a time when we can clearly understand even things that we can't see. It's the same with anything. If you try your best, you can understand what it's like to "try your best". If you don't try your best, you understand what it's like to "not try your best".”

“Belief, hard work, love–you have those things, you can do anything.”
