By taking the time to stop and appreciate who you are and what you've achieved - and perhaps learned through a few mistakes, stumbles and losses - you actually can enhance everything about you. Self-acknowledgment and appreciation are what give you the insights and awareness to move forward toward higher goals and accomplishments.
Education is the key to the future: You've heard it a million times, and it's not wrong.

No matter how many goals you have achieved, you must set your sights on a higher one.
