At the end of the day, it comes down to this.
오늘 하루가 끝나갈 무렵 이런 결론에 도달했다.
The way we choose to see ourselves, it limits who we can be.
내가 나를 보는 시각은 결국 날 가둬두게 된다.
Step outside the box, and you might learn something.
그 상자에서 조금만 바깥으로 나오면 또 다른 걸 배울 수 있을 것이다.
Because we are more capable than we imagine.
우린 우리가 생각하는 것보다 더 위대한 능력이 있다.
Because we all have it in us to do things we've never done before.
우리 모두는 전에 한 번도 해본 적이 없는 일을 할 수 있는 능력을 가지고 있기 때문입니다.
Because sometimes we can surprise even ourselves.
가끔은 나도 나 자신에 놀랄 때가 있기 때문이다.
