Nothing in life just happens. You have to have the stamina to meet the obstacles and overcome them.

A sovereign should not inflict excessive punishment, nor should he use harsh words and speak ill of anyone at his back. He who distinguishes good deeds from evil, who shows the results of karma - he is called a king. Ordained by the host of gods, the gods delight in him. For the sake of himself or others, to reserve the righteousness of the land. And to put down the rogues and criminals in his domains, Such a king would give up, if need be, his life and his kingdom. 

I believe that we learn by practice. Whether it means to learn to dance by practicing dancing or to learn to live by practicing living, the principles are the same. In each, it is the performance of a dedicated precise set of acts, physical or intellectual, from which comes shape of achievement, a sense of one's being, a satisfaction of spirit. One becomes, in some area, an athlete of god. Practice means to perform, over and over again in the face of all obstacles, some act of vision, of faith, of desire. -Martha Graham American choreographer
