My Motivation
"Have you persuaded yourself that there are knowledges and truths beyond your grasp, things you simply cannot learn? Have you allowed failure to force you to conclude that you are not mathematical, not linguistic, not poetic, not scientific, not philosophical.
If you have allowed this to happen, you have carelessly imposed limits on your intellectual freedom. and you have smothered the fires from which all other freedoms arise."
- Scott Buchanon

"Self-resilience is developed by facing one's failures and dissapointments for the sake of strengthening ones' inner resources, which includes the ability to tolerate frustration.
Self-resilience also includes accepting that one may have to disappoint others.
If failure and disappointment are evaded instead of being faced, then the same patterns of behavior will continue habitually instead of the steady growth which characterizes the "self-resilient" person who habitually and calmly faces his or her failures and disappointments (including disappointing others).
