The Redwood Tree

Keep searching. Keep moving forward. Keep getting to know yourself more deeply. Keep learning to love yourself more deeply. Keep loving and accepting other people. Keep getting to know new things. Keep trying new things. Keep fulfilling your dreams. Keep growing.
And never give up. Defeated isin´t the one who fails time after time. Defeated is the one who gives up. Because when you give up, you stop growing. You stop learning.
And winner isin´t the one who always is in the first place. Who always wins. Winner is the one who never gives up even in the moments he loses. Winner is the one who learns when he is defeated and enjoys when he wons. Winning and losing aren´t opposites. They are different wavelengths. Other one feels more bad and the other one feels better. But it doesn´t mean that winning is good or losing is bad. They are just different kind of experiences that make us feel different feelings. They are opportunities to get to know ourselves more deeply. To acknowledge why in many cases losing feels bad and winning feels good. 
Keep winning. Keep losing. Keep living without being afraid of failures. You will definitely fail if you live fully. But only people who fail can success. They know that failing is an opportunity to grow. To feel new feelings. To get to know oneself better. To feel alive.
And don´t be afraid to do things that you love. It will be definitely the most scaring thing to do. That´s why it feels so good. That´s why you will learn the most of it. Feel your fear, say hi to it, hug it and accept it. Do things that you love even if you feel like vomiting. 
And take the first step towards you dreams. The step that makes your heart beat soooo fast that you want to run away. But still, take it. Because that step will lead you to a great adventure. Adventure that will definitely shake you and your life. You won´t be the same. Your life won´t be the same. But you keep growing. You keep living fully. You keep feeling alive. You keep being alive, like the Redwood tree.
