Motivational Phrase #20

“If you're going to be passionate about something, be passionate about learning.
If you're going to fight something, fight for those in need.
If you're going to question something, question authority.
If you're going to lose something lose your inhibitions.
If you're going to gain something , gain respect and confidence.
And if you're going to hate something, hate the false idea that you are not capable of your dreams.”
