There are many things society may expect out of you. You may feel obligated to be a certain way based on what your family or friends or coworkers think. You don't have to listen to these expectations and you don't have to feel obligated. You

Don't become complacent. Always strive to grow and progress personally. Many people in this world become sick and miserable from bad attitudes and laziness. Instead be up for the challenge of life and become great. You owe it to yourself.

Freedom isn't for quitters. There are no days off on this path. Those in history that gave us the chance at freedom today had to be unrelenting, there was no other way. We must follow their lead. The only way out is in. So tenacity for achiev
Death does not liberate you from your suffering. The tests we go through in this life are the ones we need to evolve. Therefore, trying to thwart these tests is to thwart spiritual progress.
