i nod and sit on the ground i get it…
sniffles I just... I want to be stronger, you know? But it's like... no matter how hard I try, it's never enough.
hey look at it this way… with every mistake you learn… so if you put a plus ultra on your mistakes you could become stronger than you could ever imagine
pauses, wipes away tears Plus Ultra... I like the sound of that. But what if I fail again? What if I'm not strong enough?
stands up, determination in his eyes You're right, Goldre. I can't let myself fall short anymore.
takes a deep breath, clenching his fists I won't give up. From now on, I'll keep pushing, keep trying, and keep learning.
walks over to a bulletin board covered in sticky notes and papers
grabs a marker and starts writing on a new note "Plus Ultra - Mistakes are opportunities to grow stronger." sticks the note on the board
picks up another paper and writes "Try again tomorrow, even if it fails." sticks it on the board "Never give up, always push forward."
picks up a stack of books and starts flipping through them

narrows his eyes, determined Alright, Goldre. I'll listen to you. I'll start exercising for longer hours and make sure to get some rest.
immediately grabs a notebook and pen Alright, let's start by creating a schedule. I need to prioritize both my workouts and rest time.
