"I have made it through the hard times in my life by concentrating on right now. What would bring me renewed resolve or peace? Sometimes it is just acknowledging that whatever I am feeling is OK. It won’t last forever. If I have a problem that seems monumental, I try to take the first three steps that I can think of to solve it, feeling sure that if I do those first few things, other steps will reveal themselves to me. However, I only can see the next steps if I take action. This is maybe the biggest lesson that I have learned in my life."
