Concepts of Life

I got to discover recently that life basically is filled with ups and downs, to succeed you have to be able to accept your failures but never let it determine your tomorrow. People always say experience is the best teacher true, but even more importantly a wise man learns from his experiences, but a wiser man learns from the experiences of others.
Life would get tough, as you grow older it gets harder, often times that's why we look back to the past and wish we could go back to living to years again because they were "the wonder years". But you got to understand something specifically and that is never try to have a perfect life, you'll end up struggling to make it perfect till its too late, instead try to live a happy life its easier and much more fulfilling that you look back in your old days reminiscing the happy life you've had.
You have to come to that point where you see every new day as a chance to change your life. Straight never made a great driver.
Don't spend your entire life trying to find yourself, instead create yourself.
