“The important thing is, don't quit, don't give up. Don't waste all the effort that you just put in for however long, even if it's day two. You can bounce back, and you owe that to yourself. Hearing that, and knowing that it's okay to fail and you can start again, that's a pretty powerful message.” - Matt Johnson
