• Life is all about finding yourself through experiences, and about learning more and more about who you are and what you’re capable of.

Get out there and make an impact on people, whether it’s by helping them directly or by doing research to make their lives better or just by inspiring them. Do something good to be remembered for. This is more important than money.
