Have you ever done this before? What do you do when you want to achieve something that's difficult to achieve but still went for it despite the fact that you're about to lose stamina, energy or vitality but still has the desire to keep on going? What are your advice to somebody like me who's about to take the bar exams but is already nearing exhaustion? What inspirational quotes can you give?

I have a weird way of motivating myself. Coz when it's too hard you think it's impossible, right?

When I find it hard to do something, I ask myself: "How can you not finish something that others have done before?"

It's not impossible if it's been done before. That's just not logical. And that energizes me to finish whatever it is. Just the simple fact that if others before me have survived it, how can I not be more evolved than them?

I like this. This always gives me spirit whenever I remember this. Thank you.

Thank you guys for the pleasant pieces of advice!

@VirgoGent:

*My WHY is that I want to help the society through my skills and talent. I want to be a CPA Lawyer so as to help the government. I'm already accepted to work at the Commission on Audit and I'm really excited about it. Thanks for reminding me about my WHY.

*Re Discipline - Thank you for reminding me about that... but it's about to wear out. What should I do?

*Re Way - Yes, I will do everything so that I will pass! Yay! 🙂

Especially if you consider that many men and woman have accomplished extreme uberhumane tasks.

Gandhi for example, people surviving and staying healthy during their time in concentration camps and so on.
