If you admit defeat, you lose. Even if you acknowledge how bad the situation is, as long as you are determined to see it through to the end, a chance to win will emerge.NEW!
If you admit defeat, you lose…
If you read just that part, it gives the impression of being stubborn and unwilling to give up, but if you read on, you can understand what President Trump is trying to say.
Admitting defeat means giving up on that fight.
Once you give up the fight, the path that leads to the future is cut off.
But as long as you don’t give up, there may be a chance to turn the situation around.
It’s important to acknowledge failures and unfavorable circumstances while maintaining a strong, unwavering heart that doesn’t give up.
No dream is too big, and no challenge is too great.NEW!

When you paint a dream or try to take on a challenge, if the goal is too big or the finish line seems too far away, people may ask, “Can you really do it?” If you lack confidence, that one comment might make you think, “Maybe it’s impossible for me,” and leave you feeling discouraged.
In moments like that, remember this quote! Even we ourselves don’t know how far we’ll go.
We won’t have the answer until the day our lives end.
That’s exactly why we should dream big and take on big challenges—so we can see just how far we can go.
Strive not for success, but to become a person of value.NEW!Albert Einstein

For most people who want to accomplish something, the goal is likely to be success.
However, Albert Einstein, regarded as the greatest physicist of the 20th century, stated in this famous quote that we should strive to become a person of value rather than to be successful.
Success generally refers to gaining wealth or fame, but becoming too fixated on it can at times lead to unnecessary conflicts and friction with others.
When that happens, we distance ourselves from happiness.
To avoid this, perhaps he is teaching us that our talents should be used not only for ourselves but to truly help others, and that we should find value in that.
As long as you keep striving without ever losing sight of a good purpose, you will surely be saved in the end.Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

As we go through our days, circumstances gradually change, and at times you may wonder whether your current efforts are truly the right ones.
When you feel uncertain about the path you’re on, these words from Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, a German poet, offer a chance to reassess your direction.
He reminds us that what matters is to keep striving without losing sight of a worthy goal; if you set your course and continue to put in the effort, it will be rewarded.
Let’s keep moving forward, regularly checking that our efforts are aligned with the right direction, and trust that our work will pay off.
Small steps of progress add up to great success.Mahatma Gandhi
These are the words of Mahatma Gandhi, who achieved India’s independence through the philosophy of nonviolence and influenced the world.
They show that even great change begins with small, daily actions.
In studying, we tend to seek dramatic results, but it is steady, everyday effort that becomes real strength.
As you deepen your understanding bit by bit, the efforts you’ve continued will one day appear as major achievements.
Even when visible results are hard to see, it’s important not to stop moving forward.
This is a weighty quote that gently conveys the value of perseverance.
The best way to pave the road to success is through effort and diligence, and by focusing on what is going well rather than on what isn’t.NEW!
Successful people keep working harder than anyone else and repeat trial and error.
While acknowledging failures as failures, they never lose the positivity needed to reach their goals.
This famous quote by President Trump teaches us the need for steady effort and the importance of thinking positively.
Continuing to make an effort is tough, and it’s painful when hard work doesn’t lead to results.
At such times, believe in the self that has worked so hard up to now, and recall your past successes.

Genius is an ordinary person who makes an extraordinary effort.Albert Einstein
Albert Einstein, who proposed the theory of relativity and is often called the greatest physicist of the 20th century.
This quote teaches us that genius isn’t reserved for those born with special talent; rather, true talent lies in those who can steadily put in the effort.
The same goes for studying for entrance exams: even if you feel it’s not your thing, the determination to keep going without giving up becomes your strength.
More important than test scores is the progress of “understanding a little more than yesterday.” Einstein himself, celebrated as a genius, was someone who accumulated failures and trial-and-error.
These words offer support to students who want to believe in themselves as they keep working hard.
