“Whenever you feel afraid, just remember. Courage is the root of change – and change is what we’re chemically designed to do. So when you wake up tomorrow, make this pledge. No more holding yourself back. No more subscribing to others’ opinions of what you can and cannot achieve…When you go home today, ask yourself what YOU will change. And then get started.” -Elizabeth Zott, Lessons in Chemistry
