You must focus on your goals, your future, you must look at your weaknesses and turn them to traits, you must think of pain as a positive outcome and eventually it will subside. Life gets tough but its only tough if you let it be, never give up and never be afraid of failing its part of life you just pick yourself back up and carry on.
