For myself, and for others close to me, I went looking for a quote to help us all press through the resistance of the day. This is the one I found: “The default state of the world is doubt; your destiny is to believe. The default state of the world is fear; your destiny is to be brave. The default state of the world is mediocrity; your destiny is excellence. And everything can be chosen—it is always, always entirely up to you.” — James A. Owen, from the forthcoming book, THE GRAND DESIGN
