Admiral William H. McRaven gave one of the best explanations for dealing with unfair situations I've ever heard. Everyone has heard him talk about making your bed, but this story might be even better... "Get over being a sugar cookie." The Sugar Cookie Story:

Steve Nash shares the truth about the journey to greatness. "You don't have to be the chosen one." "The secret is to build the resolve and spirit to enjoy the plateaus - the times when it doesn't feel like you're improving and you question why you're doing this." Most people quit during the plateau. Learn to embrace it. "If you're patient, the plateaus will become springboards." Progress isn't linear. The flat moments aren't wasted - they're building. "Never stop striving, reaching for your goals until you get there." "But the truth is, even when you get there - even when you get here, standing on this stage - it's the striving, fighting, pushing yourself to the limit every day that you'll miss and you'll long for." "You'll never be more alive than when you give something everything you have." The destination isn't the reward - the journey is. Enjoy the process and fall in love with the climb because that's where life happens.
