I NEEDED THESE QUOTES

I've been sulking for the last few weeks because of something that happened – something I could say was a "failure". I've been really stressed out about it and it lowered my self-esteem and confidence quite a lot. But then magically, with perfect timing, a friend brought up these quotes:


“Don’t sit around waiting for a yes that will never come. It’s better to get to a no sooner rather than later, so you can put your energy into opportunities with a higher likelihood of success... If you aren’t failing sometimes, then you are probably aren’t taking enough risks.” - Dr. Tina Seelig, Executive Director of Stanford Technology Ventures Program


"If you're not worrying that something you're making will come out badly, or that you won't be able to understand something you're studying, then it isn't hard enough." - Paul Graham, Co-founder of Y Combinator
