Hello, i am writing a paper for a summer course and i have taken no latin so this is all new, but i need help translating these phrases but i have not come across any reliable sources...can anyone help?

-I live with purpose, for i am the architect of my future

- Learn to endure

- Strength is bound by weakness

- Strength is defined by struggle

- My strengths are defined by my struggles

Also, does anyone know any books or resources that could assist me in learning to translate on my own?

@mp42763,
-I live with purpose, for i am the architect of my future
Cum proposito vivo, architectus enim futurorum meorum sum

Cum --> with
proposito --> purpose
vivo --> I live
architectus --> architect
enim --> for
futurorum --> of the future
meorum --> my
sum --> I am

- Learn to endure
Disce sustinere (If addressing one person)
Discite sustinere (If addressing more than one person)

Disce, discite --> Learn
sustinere --> to endure

- Strength is bound by weakness
Vis infirmitate conligata est

Vis --> Strength
infirmitate --> by weakness
conligata est --> is bound

- Strength is defined by struggle
Vis certamine definita est
certamine --> by struggle
definita est --> is defined

- My strengths are defined by my struggles
Vires meae certaminibus meis definitae sunt

Vires
--> Strengths
meae --> my
certaminibus --> by struggles
meis --> my
definitae sunt --> are defined
