  16. Sometimes life hits you in the head with a brick. Don’t lose faith. I’m convinced that the only thing that kept me going was that I loved what I did. You’ve got to find what you love ..... If you haven’t found it yet, keep looking. Don’t settle. As with all matters of the heart, you’ll know when you find it. .... So keep looking until you find it. Don’t settle.
