I believe everyone is born into the world to do something unique and distinctive.

Benjamin E. Mays

The tragedy of life is not found in failure but complacency. Not in you doing too much, but doing too little. Not in you living above your means, but below your capacity. It’s not failure but aiming too low, that is life’s greatest tragedy.

Not failure, but low aim is sin.
