He reminds us that striking that balance is difficult.
It always seems impossible until it is done.Nelson Mandela
“It always seems impossible until it’s done.” This famous quote is by Nelson Mandela, who, after being imprisoned for 27 years, was elected President of South Africa and abolished the unjust system of apartheid.
Because he steadfastly pursued reconciliation between races with unwavering conviction, his words carry profound weight.
Life is beautiful because we fight.Pierre de Coubertin
These are the words left by the French educator who crafted the basic concept of the Olympics and is also called the “father of the modern Olympic Games.” The idea of fighting can be interpreted in many ways, but what can be said in any situation is that the most beautiful thing is the figure of someone facing a challenge with all their strength.

If you work hard, will you be rewarded? That’s not it. You keep working hard until you’re rewarded.Lionel Messi
Even if you know the saying “hard work pays off,” you can’t help feeling uneasy until you actually see results, right? Here is a famous quote by Lionel Messi that speaks to how steep the path is when it comes to connecting effort and results.
It doesn’t claim that any effort will be rewarded; rather, it powerfully conveys that only those who keep giving their all, no matter how painful it gets, will be rewarded.
These words also inspire the mindset that if you’re not seeing results yet, it means your effort isn’t enough—you’ve still got more in you.
Fortune may take wealth from us, but it cannot take our courage.Lucius Annaeus Seneca
If you took World History or Ethics in high school, you may have encountered Seneca at least once.
To distinguish him from his father, Marcus Annaeus Seneca, he’s also called “Seneca the Younger.” It’s kind of interesting, isn’t it? Seneca’s tragedies are said to have influenced later writers like Ben Jonson and Shakespeare.
These words of his teach the strength of courage.
If you’re struggling to stay positive, try repeating them like a spell.
It’s said that human words carry a special power—kotodama.
I reflect on what I should, but once I sleep, I forget it.Atsuya Furuta
While self-reflection is important as we keep striving, when that feeling grows too strong it can make us fear risk and stop in our tracks.
Here are the words of Atsuya Furuta—who excelled as both a player and a manager for the Yakult Swallows—offering a way of thinking about how to face reflection so we can keep looking ahead and moving forward.
He tells us that although reflecting is essential, it’s not good to dwell on it; we should reset our feelings and move on the next day.
His words convey the idea that reflection isn’t meant to shake our emotions, but to help us gain lessons for the future.
