      It will get better. You can’t change that.

      Success is inevitable, whether you like it or not.

      Embrace change; it’s coming for you.

      You will find happiness. Whether you’re ready or not.

      Destiny beckons. It’s not asking for your permission.

      You’ll conquer your fears. You have no other choice.

      Your potential is limitless, as are the consequences of ignoring it.

      You’re destined for greatness, even if destiny has to drag you there.

      Life is a journey. You can’t escape the itinerary.

      Seize the day. The night will come regardless.

      You are in control of your destiny...unless it’s already decided.

      You will find happiness. Resistance is futile.

      You can do anything. So can they.

      Achieve greatness or face the consequences

      Embrace the unknown. It’s embracing you right back.
