Hey David, High aspirations breeds frustration. Frustration breeds motivation. Motivation pushes you to action, whether you take tiny baby steps or huge strides. Action breeds confidence, you start to feel in control. Confidence is cumulative, once you start aquiring it you get more and more of it. Soon enough you prove to yourself that you're a star who can surmount any obstacle and achieve whatever you decide you want to achieve with your life. You're on a roll! Thanks for your votes! you got mine!
