From now on, then, resolve to live as a grown-up who is making progress,

and make whatever you think best a law that you never set aside.

And whenever you encounter anything that is difficult or pleasurable, or highly or lowly regarded,

remember that the contest is now: you are at the Olympic Games, you cannot wait any longer,

and that your progress is wrecked or preserved by a single day and a single event.

— Epictetus
