Learn from them, grow stronger, and never be afraid to try again. Every mistake is an opportunity to correct and improve oneself."

“Don’t forget to take care of yourself, okay? You can’t pour from an empty cup.” Napatawa ako nang mahina. Pamilyar na sa akin ang linyang ‘yon; ilang beses na rin niyang sinabi iyon para ipaalala sa akin na unahin din ang sarili. Parang naging mantra na namin. “I know. I’m trying.

There is no harm in trying again and again, and she will do so until she gets what she wants.

Pero alam kong kailangan kong tapusin ang mga ito upang masigurong maayos ang lahat para sa susunod na araw. Pagkatapos kong tapusin ang aking mga gawain, humiga ako sa kama at nagmuni-muni. Alam kong malayo pa ang aming lalakbayin, pero sa tulong ng aking mga tauhan at ng aking pamilya, alam kong makakamtan namin ang tagumpay. "Ein weiterer Tag, ein weiterer Schritt näher zum Erfolg," (Isang araw pa, isang hakbang palapit sa tagumpay) sabi ko sa aking sarili habang unti-unting pumipikit ang aking mga mata.

Close up. "Ang tagumpay ay hindi isang bagay na dumarating dahil lang sa suwerte o tsamba," panimula ni Trevor, hindi pinalalampas ang kahit isang segundo na hindi nakatitig sa reporter. "Maraming sakripisyo ang kailangang ibayad.

"Kumusta po, Ma'am?" "Ayos lang, hija. Hindi ko na siguro kailangang tanungin kung kumusta ka nitong mga nakaraan. I know you're doing great." Peke lang akong ngumiti. Yeah.

Kita ko ang lungkot sa kaniyang mga mata. They seem real. O magaling lang talaga siyang umarte.

Mainit at malambot ang kamay niya, gaya ng dati. “You’re such a stubborn girl, Vanessa. Just like my son.” Napangiti ako nang bahagya. “I’ll take that as a compliment.” “It is a compliment,” sagot niya agad. “Stubborn people survive. Stubborn people thrive. Stubborn people build empires.” Napailing ako habang natatawa. “I’m not building an empire. I’m literally just trying to survive my deadlines.” “Same thing,” sagot niya. “Every empire starts with one small step. One job at a time.”

Bumuntong-hininga siya at muling nagpatuloy. “There were times when people mistreated me because I was young and thought my dream was nothing but trash. There were always people who tried to stop me from doing something good for this company. But I never gave up. I only tried harder.”
