AND MY BIGGEST ADVICE FOR YOU, I WOULD SAY ALWAYS REMEMBER YOUR WHY. WHY ARE YOU DOING WHAT YOU'RE DOING? BECAUSE IF YOU REMEMBER WHY YOU'RE DOING WHAT YOU'RE DOING, YOU'RE ALWAYS GOING TO BE IN LINE WITH YOUR AUTHENTIC SELF. AND I THINK THAT'S THE MOST IMPORTANT THING. SO ANYWAYS, I HOPE YOU ENJOY THIS JOURNEY AND REMEMBER: IT DOES GET HARD, BUT IT'S REALLY REWARDING BECAUSE, YOU KNOW, ANYTHING THAT IS REALLY HARD IS WORTH PUTTING EFFORT INTO BECAUSE THE REWARD WILL ALSO BE GREATER.
