RUN TO INSPIRE

 As a law student, Carita embarked on her second life challenge. She could have been content with her first job out of school, but her vision for what she wanted to pursue in life quickly became clear. She left her stable job to chase the new dream; bringing everything back to the starting line.


Adjusting to the new lifestyle of a law student not only brought countless new learning opportunities, but also the lingering fear of failure.

Running

Carita's began a routine. On her daily runs, she would push negative thoughts out and invigorate herself with Sisu in her heart. She sought motivation by reciting inspiring sayings in her mind as she runs.

Karhu ES

"THERE IS NO ELEVATOR TO SUCCESS. YOU HAVE TO TAKE THE STAIRS." "RUNNING IS THE GREATEST METAPHOR FOR LIFE, BECAUSE YOU GET OUT OF IT WHAT YOU PUT INTO IT." "IN THE MIDDLE OF DIFFICULTY LIES OPPORTUNITY." "STRENGTH DOESN'T COME FROM WHAT YOU CAN DO. IT COMES FROM OVERCOMING THE THINGS YOU ONCE THOUGHT YOU COULDN'T." "THERE ARE NO OLD ROADS TO NEW DIRECTIONS." "YOU CAN'T HAVE A BETTER TOMORROW IF YOU'RE STILL THINKING ABOUT YESTERDAY." "I DON'T STOP WHEN I'M TIRED, I STOP WHEN I'M DONE." "THE FUTURE BELONGS TO THOSE WHO BELIEVE IN THE BEAUTY OF THEIR DREAMS." "THERE IS NO SUBSITUTE FOR HARD WORK."

As she reaches the end part of her favorite running path, she views her surroundings from a new light. They look more beautiful, more meaningful, and help shape her desire to persevere. Every run becomes new motivation.
