About This Quote

When you get to a certain point in your life, there is always something you want. But it is not always possible to get everything you want, or even most of what you want. What you should do is find the things that are important to you and focus on those. Then, when you do not get all of what you want, your definition of what is important will start changing and look better and better to you. You will see that these things that did not turn out exactly how you wanted them to did not matter as much as what they did for your life and the way it looks now.
