I'm proud of my future wife, and of our relationship. I'm proud of my family, and how hard the work for what they have.
And I'm proud of my perspective and mindset, learned through many twists and turns in my life. I feel those are my accomplishments. Nothing else matters, and is ornamental at best.
Optimism. I love the energy that surrounds the idea of a hopeful and bright future. Rather than be negative or cynical, people should focus on their prospects.
Creating things, creating value, connecting people together. Finding ways to have more people "collide" with more people, and how that energy does translate, and help grow and cultivate more positive energy.
